During the past decade there has been a phenomenal growth in the
basic research of semiconductor nanoclusters and other
nanomaterials. As the field has evolved the emphasis has shifted
from basic theoretical description to field utilization of
nanostructure-based devices. The topics of the various chapters
presented in this book, written by leaders in the field, highlight
the salient features of nanocrystalline semiconductor materials.
Features of this book:
- Provides synthetic strategies to generate ultrasmall
particles, films and wires
- Describes the characterization methodologies of a large number
of nanomaterials from the molecular level to the long-range
crystallographic ordering
- Develops theoretical descriptions of present-day quantum
confinement effects in various materials, including metallic
particles, III-V semiconductors, and porous silicon
- Explores the fate of photoinduced charge carriers in these
materials and the phenomena of charge transfer across
interfaces
- Covers the utilization of these newly discovered effects in
analytical chemistry, organic synthesis, environmental remediation,
and electrochemistry.
The aim of the book is to present the necessary background
material for advanced undergraduate students in the field of
physical chemistry and materials science and provide a reference
book for the experts in this area.
