Materials Nanoarchitectonics: From Integrated Molecular Systems to
Advanced Devices provides the latest information on the design and
molecular manipulation of self-organized hierarchically structured
systems using tailor-made nanoscale materials as structural and
functional units. The book is organized into three main sections
that focus on molecular design of building blocks and hybrid
materials, formation of nanostructures, and applications and
devices. Bringing together emerging materials, synthetic aspects,
nanostructure strategies, and applications, the book aims to
support further progress, by offering different perspectives and a
strong interdisciplinary approach to this rapidly growing area of
innovation. This is an extremely valuable resource for researchers,
advanced students, and scientists in industry, with an interest in
nanoarchitectonics, nanostructures, and nanomaterials, or across
the areas of nanotechnology, chemistry, surface science, polymer
science, electrical engineering, physics, chemical engineering, and
materials science.
This interdisciplinary book focuses on the various aspects
transformation of the energy from sunlight into the chemical bonds
of a fuel, known as the artificial photosynthesis, and addresses
the emergent challenges connected with growing societal demands for
clean and sustainable energy technologies. The editors assemble the
research of world-recognized experts in the field of both molecular
and materials artificial systems for energy production.
Contributors cover the full scope of research on photosynthesis and
related energy processes.
This book is the first publication to widely introduce the
contributions of nanoarchitectonics to the development of
functional materials and systems. The book opens up pathways to
novel nanotechnology based on bottom-up techniques. In fields of
nanotechnology, theoretical and practical limitations are expected
in the bottom-up nanofabrication process. Instead, some
supramolecular processes for nano- and microstructure formation
including molecular recognition, self-assembly, and template
synthesis have gained great attention as novel key technologies to
break through expected limitations in current nanotechnology. This
volume describes future images of nanotechnology and related
materials and device science as well as practical applications for
energy and biotechnology. Readers including specialists,
non-specialists, graduate students, and undergraduate students can
focus on the parts of the book that interest and concern them most.
Target fields include materials chemistry, organic chemistry,
physical chemistry, nanotechnology, and even biotechnology.
This book is the ultimate assembly of recent research activities on
molecular architectonics and nanoarchitectonics by authors who are
worldwide experts. The book proposes new ways of creating
functional materials at the nano level using the concepts of
molecular architectonics and nanoarchitectonics, which are expected
to be the next-generation approaches beyond conventional
nanotechnology. All the contents are categorized by types of
materials, organic materials, biomaterials, and nanomaterials. For
that reason, non-specialists including graduate and undergraduate
students can start reading the book from any points they would
like. Cutting-edge trends in nanotechnology and material sciences
are easily visible in the contents of the book, which is highly
useful for both students and experimental materials scientists.

Supra-materials Nanoarchitectonics provides the latest information
on design at the nanoscale, presenting a range of the new
challenges that arise as the manipulation techniques that work at
the macro- and micro-scale do not work at the nanoscale. The term
nanoarchitectonics, coined by Japan's National Institute for
Materials Science (NIMS), describes the organized interactions
required at the nanoscale, replacing the traditional
structure-building approach used in materials design.
Nanoarchitectonics approaches material design via a profound
understanding of the interactions between individual nanostructures
and their organization. As the nanoarchitectonics paradigm fits
well with the discipline of supramolecular chemistry, this book
brings together these two approaches to demonstrate the potential
of supramolecular nanoarchitectonics in the development of new
materials, both at the nano- and macro-scale.
The fundamentals of "supramolecular chemistry" to the latest
developments on the subject are covered by this book. It sets out
to explain the topic in a relatively easy way. The basic concepts
of molecular recognition chemistry are included. Molecules with
fascinating shapes and functions such as fullerenes, carbon
nanotubes, dendrimers, rotaxane, and catenane, and molecular
assemblies are also explained. Thereafter applications of
supermolecules to nanotechnology are introduced with many examples
of molecular devices. The last part of the book describes
biological supermolecules and their mimics. Though simply explained
undergraduate and graduate students in Chemistry will be able to
use aspects of this work as an advanced textbook.
The concept of nanoarchitechtonics was introduced to describe the
correct manipulation of nanoscale materials in the creation of
nano-devices and applications. Nanoarchitectonics has begun to
spread into many fields including nanostructured materials
synthesis, supramolecular assembly, nanoscale structural
fabrications, materials hybridizations, materials and structures
for energy and environmental sciences, device and physical
application, and bio- and medical applications. Following on from
the 2012 title Manipulation of Nanoscale Materials, Concepts and
Design of Materials Nanoarchitectonics covers the introductory
features underlying the field, presenting a unifying overview of
the theoretical aspects and emerging applications that are changing
the capability to understand and design advanced functional
materials. Edited by pioneers of the field, this book will appeal
to researchers working in nanoscience, materials science,
supramolecular chemistry, physical chemistry and organic chemistry,
as well as graduate students in these areas.
Advanced Supramolecular Nanoarchitectonics provides the latest
information on design at the nanoscale, presenting a range of the
new challenges that arise when the manipulation techniques that
work at the macro- and micro-scale do not work at the nanoscale.
Nanoarchitectonics approaches material design via a profound
understanding of the interactions between individual nanostructures
and their organization. This book presents the more advanced
features of this research paradigm, focusing on the materials
fabrication of self-defined nanostructures and demonstrating
possible applications of these fabricated materials.
Techniques and strategies for the production of nanomaterials and
nanostructures have developed to an advanced level. However, the
concepts and methods needed to correctly architect these materials
into viable applications remains seriously lacking. This book
introduces the concept of "Nanoarchitechtonics", a term introduced
by Dr Masakazu Aono to describe the correct manipulation of
nanoscale materials in the creation of nano-devices and
applications. With contributions from across the globe,
Manipulation of Nanoscale Materials presents a broad spectrum of
nanomaterials and their applications. Following an introductory
chapter prepared by the editors, the book is divided into three
further sections of chapters, detailing Nanoarchitectonics for
Materials Development, Materials Nanoarchitechtonics for
Bio-Conjugates and Bio-Applications, Materials Nanoarchitechtonics
for Advanced Devices. The first book in its field, this is
essential reading for anyone creating or deploying nanomaterials.
Fully referenced to the primary literature, this title presents an
excellent source of information, and inspiration, to the reader and
should appeal to experienced materials scientists,
nanotechnologists and postgraduate students. Dr. Katsuhiko Ariga is
the Director of Supermolecules Group and Principal Investigator of
World Premier International (WPI) Research Center for Materials
Nanoarchitectonics (MANA), the National Institute for Materials
Science (NIMS). Dr Masakazu Aono is Director General of MANA and
group leader of the nano-system organiszation group MANA, NIMS.
This ready reference is the first to collate the interdisciplinary
knowledge from materials science, bioengineering and nanotechnology
to give an in-depth overview of the topic. As such, it provides
broad coverage of combinations between inorganic materials and such
key biological structures as proteins, enzymes, DNA, or
biopolymers. With its treatment of various application directions,
including bioelectronic interfacing, tissue repair, porous
membranes, sensors, nanocontainers, and DNA engineering, this is
essential reading for materials engineers, medical researchers,
catalytic chemists, biologists, and those working in the
biotechnological and semiconductor industries.
