Instrumental community : Probe Microscopy and the Path to Nanotechnology

In this volume, the author argues that this technology-centric view does not explain how these microscopes helped to launch nanotechnology - and fails to acknowledge the agency of the microscopists in making the STM and its variants critically important tools.

Innovation, dual use, and security :managing the risks of emerging biological…

Recent advances in disciplines such as biotechnology, nanotechnology, and neuropharmacology entail a "dual-use dilemma" because they promise benefits for human health and welfare yet pose the risk of misuse for hostile purposes. The emerging field of synthetic genomics, for example, can produce custom DNA molecules for life-saving drugs but also makes possible the creation of deadly viral agent…

Vertically-Oriented Graphene PECVD Synthesis and Applications

This book introduces the basic concepts, synthesis techniques, and applications of vertically-oriented graphene. The authors detail emerging applications of vertically-oriented graphene such as field emitters, atmospheric nanoscale corona discharges, gas sensors and biosensors, supercapacitors, lithium-ion batteries, fuel cells (catalyst supports) and electrochemical transducers. They offer a p…

Handbook of Nanoelectrochemistry

This edited book is devoted to different electrochemical aspects of nanomaterials. This comprehensive reference text is basically divided in 3 parts: electrochemical synthesis routes for nanosized materials, electrochemical properties of nanomaterials and electrochemical characterization methods for nanostructures. The Handbook is a reference work to chemists and materials scientists interested…

Understanding and Modeling Förster-type Resonance Energy Transfer (FRET) In…

This Brief presents a historical overview of the Förster-type nonradiative energy transfer and a compilation of important progress in FRET research, starting from Förster until today, along with a summary of the current state-of-the-art. Here the objective is to provide the reader with a complete account of important milestones in FRET studies and FRET applications as well as a picture of the…

Artificially Controllable Nanodevices Constructed by DNA Origami Technology: …

In this book, the author deals mainly with two topics: (1) single-molecule visualization of switching behaviors in the DNA nanoframe system utilizing different kinds of molecular switches through the use of high-speed atomic force microscope (AFM); (2) construction of photocontrollable DNA nanostructures in programmed patterns and direct visualization of the dynamic assembling process. Here, hi…
