We are at a critical evolutionary juncture in the research and
development of low-temperature plasmas, which have become essential
to synthesizing and processing vital nanoscale materials. More and
more industries are increasingly dependent on plasma technology to
develop integrated small-scale devices, but physical limits to
growth, and other challenges, threaten progress. Plasma Processing
of Nanomaterials is an in-depth guide to the art and science of
plasma-based chemical processes used to synthesize, process, and
modify various classes of nanoscale materials such as
nanoparticles, carbon nanotubes, and semiconductor nanowires.
Plasma technology enables a wide range of academic and industrial
applications in fields including electronics, textiles,
automotives, aerospace, and biomedical. A prime example is the
semiconductor industry, in which engineers revolutionized
microelectronics by using plasmas to deposit and etch thin films
and fabricate integrated circuits. An overview of progress and
future potential in plasma processing, this reference illustrates
key experimental and theoretical aspects by presenting practical
examples of: Nanoscale etching/deposition of thin films Catalytic
growth of carbon nanotubes and semiconductor nanowires Silicon
nanoparticle synthesis Functionalization of carbon nanotubes
Self-organized nanostructures Significant advances are expected in
nanoelectronics, photovoltaics, and other emerging fields as plasma
technology is further optimized to improve the implementation of
nanomaterials with well-defined size, shape, and composition.
Moving away from the usual focus on wet techniques embraced in
chemistry and physics, the author sheds light on pivotal
breakthroughs being made by the smaller plasma community. Written
for a diverse audience working in fields ranging from
nanoelectronics and energy sensors to catalysis and nanomedicine,
this resource will help readers improve development and application
of nanomaterials in their own work. About the Author: R. Mohan
Sankaran received the American Vacuum Society's 2011 Peter Mark
