Introduction to Nanoscience and Nanotechnology

About this book

The maturation of nanotechnology has revealed it to be a unique and distinct discipline rather than a specialization within a larger field. Its textbook cannot afford to be a chemistry, physics, or engineering text focused on nano. It must be an integrated, multidisciplinary, and specifically nano textbook. The archetype of the modern nano textbook

ANOSCIENCE
I 
would 
like 
to 
describe 
a 
eld, 
in 
which 
little 
has 
been 
done, 
but 
in 
which 
an 
enormous 
amount 
can 
be 
done 
in 
principle. 
This 
eld 
is 
not 
quite 
the 
same 
as 
the 
others 
in 
that 
it 
will 
not 
tell 
us 
much 
of 
fundamental 
physics 
(in 
the 
sense 
of, 
‘What 
are 
the 
strange 
particles?’) 
but 
it 
is 
more 
like 
solid-state 
physics 
in 
the 
sense 
that 
it 
might 
tell 
us 
much 
of 
great 
interest 
about 
the 
strange 
phenomena 
that 
occur 
in 
complex 
situations. 
Furthermore, 
a 
point 
that 
is 
most 
important 
is 
that 
it 
would 
have 
an 
enormous 
number 
of 
technical 
applications. 
What 
I 
want 
to 
talk 
about 
is 
the 
problem 
of 
manipulating 
and 
controlling 
things 
on 
a 
small 
scale.
