Description: "This book consolidates a wealth of current and complex information regarding one-dimensional nanostructures into one volume for practicing chemists, physicists, materials scientists, and engineers in industry and academia. One-dimensional nanostructures are not only in the forefront of the hottest fundamental materials research, but they are also becoming part of our daily lives. 69 experts from around the world provide in-depth chapters on their specific areas of expertise, coving all important applications such as: photodetectors, gas sensors, biosensors, chemical sensors, field-emitters, lasers, lithium-ion batteries, supercapacitors, light emitting diodes (LED), photovoltaics, nanogenerators, thermoelectrics, piezoelectrics and field-effect transistors"--
Review Quotes:
"The book will be valuable to researchers, academicians, and students of chemistry, physics, materials science, and engineering, and will help chemical engineers advance their own investigations into the next generation of applications." (Chemical Engineering Progress, 1 September 2013)
"It should also help readers to pursue their own investigations to develop the next generation of applications in this exciting and relatively new field." (Chemistry & Industry, 1 June 2013)
