Biological Nanostructures and Applications of Nanostructures in
Biology: Electrical, Mechanical, and Optical Properties contains
reviews and discussions of contemporary and relevant topics dealing
with the interface between the science and technology of
nanostructures and the science of biology. Moreover, this book
supplements these past groundbreaking discoveries with discussions
of promising new avenues of research that reveal the enormous
potential of emerging approaches in nanobiotechnology. The topics
include: - Biomedical applications of semiconductor quantum dots, -
Integrating and tagging biological structures with nanoscale
quantum dots, - Applications of carbon nanotubes in bioengineering,
- Nanophysical properties of living cells, - Bridging natural
nanotubes with fabricated nanotubes, - Bioinspired approaches to
building nanoscale devices and systems, - Hairpin formation in
polynucleotides. This state-of-the-art survey of key developments
in nanotechnology - as they apply to bioengineering and biology -
is essential reading for all academics, biomedical engineers,
medical physicists, and industry professionals wishing to take
advantage of the latest developments and highly-promising
discoveries in nanoscience underlying applications in
bioengineering and biology.
Quantum Heterostructures provides a detailed description of the key
physical and engineering principles of quantum semiconductor
heterostructures. Blending important concepts from physics,
materials science, and electrical engineering, it also explains
clearly the behavior and operating features of modern
microelectronic and optoelectronic devices. The authors begin by
outlining the trends that have driven development in this field,
most importantly the need for high-performance devices in computer,
information, and communications technologies. They then describe
the basics of quantum nanoelectronics, including various transport
mechanisms. In the latter part of the book, they cover novel
microelectronic devices, and optical devices based on quantum
heterostructures. The book contains many homework problems and is
suitable as a textbook for undergraduate and graduate courses in
electrical engineering, physics, or materials science. It will also
be of great interest to those involved in research or development
in microelectronic or optoelectronic devices.

Increasing miniaturization of devices, components, and integrated
systems requires developments in the capacity to measure, organize,
and manipulate matter at the nanoscale. This textbook, first
published in 2007, is a comprehensive, interdisciplinary account of
the technology and science that underpin nanoelectronics, covering
the underlying physics, nanostructures, nanomaterials, and
nanodevices. Without assuming prior knowledge of quantum physics,
this book provides a unifying framework for the basic ideas needed
to understand the recent developments in the field. Numerous
illustrations, homework problems and interactive Java applets help
the student to appreciate the basic principles of nanotechnology,
and to apply them to real problems. Written in a clear yet rigorous
and interdisciplinary manner, this textbook is suitable for
advanced undergraduate and graduate students in electrical and
electronic engineering, nanoscience, materials, bioengineering, and
chemical engineering.

This book focuses on the theory of phonon interactions in nanoscale
structures with particular emphasis on modern electronic and
optoelectronic devices. The continuing progress in the fabrication
of semiconductor nanostructures with lower dimensional features has
led to devices with enhanced functionality and even novel devices
with new operating principles. The critical role of phonon effects
in such semiconductor devices is well known. There is therefore a
great need for a greater awareness and understanding of confined
phonon effects. A key goal of this book is to describe tractable
models of confined phonons and how these are applied to
calculations of basic properties and phenomena of semiconductor
heterostructures. The level of presentation is appropriate for
undergraduate and graduate students in physics and engineering with
some background in quantum mechanics and solid state physics or
devices. A basic understanding of electromagnetism and classical
acoustics is assumed.
