This book is based on the lectures and contributions of the NATO
Advanced Study Institute on "Nanoscience and Nanotechnology in
Security and Protection Against CBRN Threats" held in Sozopol,
Bulgaria, September 2019. It gives a broad overview on this topic
as it combines articles addressing the preparation and
characterization of different nanoscaled materials (metals, oxides,
glasses, polymers, carbon-based, etc.) in the form of nanowires,
nanoparticles, nanocomposites, nanodots, thin films, etc. and
contributions on their applications in diverse security and safety
related fields. In addition, it presents an interdisciplinary
approach drawing on the Nanoscience and Nanotechnology know-how of
authors from Physics, Chemistry, Engineering, Materials Science and
Biology. A further plus-point of the book, which represents the
knowledge of experts from over 20 countries, is the combination of
longer papers introducing the background on a certain topic, and
brief contributions highlighting specific applications in different
security areas.

The preparation and characterization of various nano-scaled
materials and their applications in diverse security and safety-
related fields. Readers are provided with a broad overview on the
topic as it combines articles addressing the preparation and
characterization of different nano-scaled materials (metals,
oxides, glasses, polymers, carbon-based, etc.). The contributions
derive from the lectures and contributions of the NATO Advanced
Study Institute meeting "Nanoscience Advances in CBRN Agents
Detection, Information and Energy Security" held in Sozopol,
Bulgaria, 29 May - 6 June, 2014. In addition, it presents an
interdisciplinary approach, utilizing Nanoscience and
Nanotechnology research from different disciplines including;
physics, chemistry, engineering, materials science and biology. A
major advantage of this book, which represents the knowledge of
experts from 20 countries, is the combination of longer papers
introducing the basic knowledge on a certain topic, and brief
contributions highlighting specific applications in different
security areas.
Nanoscience and Nanotechnology are experiencing a rapid development
in many aspects, like real-space atomic-scale imaging, atomic and
molecular manipulation, nano-fabrication, etc. , which will have a
profound impact not only in every field of research, but also on
everyday life in the twenty-first century. The common efforts of
researchers from different countries and fields of science can
bring complementary expertise to solve the rising problems in order
to take advantage of the nanoscale approaches in Materials Science.
Nanostructured materials, i. e. materials made with atomic
accuracy, show unique properties as a consequence of nanoscale size
confinement, predominance of interfacial phenomena and quantum
effects. Therefore, by reducing the dimensions of a structure to
nanosize, many inconceivable properties will appear and may lead to
different novel applications from na- electronics and nanophotonics
to nanobiological systems and nanomedicine. All this requires the
contribution of multidisciplinary teams of physicists, chemists,
materials scientists, engineers and biologists to work together on
the synthesis and processing of nanomaterials and nanostructures,
und- standing the properties related to the nanoscale, the design
of nano-devices as well as of new tools for the characterization of
nano-structured materials. The first objective of the NATO ASI on
Nanostructured Materials for Advanced Technological Applications
was to assess the up-to-date achie- ments and future perspectives
of application of novel nanostructured materials, focusing on the
relationships material structure ? functional properties ? possible
applications.
This book, based on the lectures and contributions of the NATO
ASIon Functional Properties of Nanostructured Materials, gives a
broadoverview on this topic, as it combines basic theoretical
articles, papersdealing with experimental techniques, and
contributions on advancedand up-to-date applications in fields such
as microelectronics, optoelectronics, electrochemistry, sensorics,
and biotechnology. Inaddition, it presents an interdisciplinary
approach since the authorscame from such different fields as
physics, chemistry, engineering, materials science and biology.
Some emphasis is given to the field ofnanostructured/nanoscaled
thin films, again stretching from basictheoretical over
experimental (including both, fabrication andcharacterization) to
application oriented topic
