Over the last decade, techniques for materials preparation and processing at nanometer scale have advanced rapidly, leading to the introduction of novel principles for a new generation of sensors and detectors. At the same time, the chemical industry, transport and agriculture produce huge amounts of dangerous waste gases and liquids, leading to soil, air and water contamination. One more modern threat - international terrorism - demands that scientists make efforts to apply new principles and technologies to protect society against chemical, biological, radiological and nuclear (CBRN) attacks and to develop novel effective technologies for the remediation of large contaminated areas. Accordingly, the main goal of this book is to bring together experts (theorists, experimentalists, engineers and technologists) for an extensive discussion covering: novel principles for functional nanostructures and detector fabrication and implementation, the development of novel technologies for the deactivation of CBRN agents, their experimental realization and their application in novel monitoring and control systems, and technological processes for soil and water remediation, with a view to environmental protection and defence against CBRN-based terrorism. In keeping with the book's main goal, the following topics are highlighted and discussed: - Sensors and detectors - detection of chemicals, principles of "artificial nose" and chemical "micro-lab on a chip" design, surface and underground water quality monitoring systems, molecular electronics, superconducting electronic devices, quantum detectors and Qubits. - Environmental protection and CBRN - detection of infrared, microwave, X-ray and terahertz radiation. Principles for novel IR-, UV-, and Terahertz-wave devices for the detection of low-contrast objects. - Novel technological processes for CBRN destruction and deactivation. All these topics are strongly interrelated, both with regard to fundamental aspects and to fabrication and implementation technologies; in addition, they are highly promising for application in novel functional devices, computer logics, sensing and detection of low-concentration chemicals, weak and extremely weak magnetic and microwave fields, infrared and ultraviolet radiation. Given its scope, the book will be a useful and interesting guide for a broad readership of engineers, scientists, PhD students and experts in the area of defence against environmental terrorism.
The main intention of the editors of the book is the demonstration of the intrinsic correlation and mutual influence of three important components of nanoscience: new phenomena - nanomaterials - nanodevices. This is the organizing concept of the book. To discover new phenomena it is necessary to develop novel nanotechnological processes for fabrication of nanomaterials. Nanostructures and new phenomena serve as the base for the development of novel nanoelectronic devices and systems. The articles selected for the book illustrate this interrelation.

Der Erste Johannesbrief steht in der schon im Johannesevangelium zu beobachtenden eigentumlichen Traditionsbewegung, die bestimmt ist durch das Ineinander von bewusster Ubernahme und eigenstandiger Neukonzipierung der jeweils vorgegebenen Tradition. Den Nachweis dafur erbringen die genauen Analysen der wichtigsten Themenkomplexe des Briefs im jeweiligen Vergleich mit den entsprechenden Bezugstexten des Evangeliums. Als treibende Krafte fur die dadurch zutage tretende Neukonzipierung wirken sowohl die Entfaltungsbedurftigkeit der Tradition als auch der aktuelle Konflikt um ihre rechte Auslegung: Der Verfasser des Johannesbriefs bezieht Position, um die Tradition gerade durch ihre Neukonzipierung zu bewahren. Aus diesem Umgang mit vorgegebener Tradition, fur den sich auch im ubrigen Neuen Testament zahlreiche Beispiele finden, ergeben sich Folgerungen fur das Verstandnis des neutestamentlichen Kanons als Festschreibung von Traditionen, Traditionsbewegungen und fur die kirchliche Verkundigung: Treue zur Tradition bewahrt sich nur im Mut zu deren Neuinterpretation. Horst Hahn, Jahrgang 1933, war Gemeindepfarrer in Schopp/Pfalz, Oberkirchenrat und Stellvertreter des Prasidenten der Evangelischen Kirche der Pfalz sowie von 1987 bis 1997 Vorsitzender der Arbeitsgemeinschaft Missionarische Dienste der EKD. Seit 1997 lebt er im Ruhestand.
