Employing terminology familiar to materials scientists and engineers it provides an introduction that delves into the unique nature of nanomaterials. Looking at the quantum effects that come into play and other characteristics realized at the nano level it explains how the properties displayed by nanomaterials can differ from those displayed by single crystals and conventional micro structured monolithic or composite materials. The introduction is followed by an in depth investigation of carbon based nanomaterials which are as important to nanotechnology as silicon is to electronics. However it goes beyond the usual discussion of nanotubes and nanofibers to consider graphite whiskers cones and poly hedral crystals and nanocrystalline diamonds. It also provides significant new information with regard to nanostructured semiconductors ceramics metals biomaterials and polymers as well as nanotechnology's application in drug delivery systems bioimplants and field emission displays. 280 pp.…
