Book excerpt: Silicon has been proven to be remarkably resilient as a commercial electronic material. The microelectronics industry has harnessed nanotechnology to continually push the performance limits of silicon devices and integrated circuits. Rather than shrinking its market share, silicon is displacing “competitor” semiconductors in domains such as high-frequency electronics and integrated photonics. There are strong business drivers underlying these trends; however, an important contribution is also being made by research groups worldwide, who are developing new configurations, designs, and applications of silicon-based nanoscale and nanostructured materials. This Special Issue features a selection of papers which illustrate recent advances in the preparation of chemically or physically engineered silicon-based nanostructures and their application in electronic, photonic, and mechanical systems.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Silicon Based Polymers presents highlights in advanced research and technological innovations using macromolecular organosilicon compounds and systems, as presented in the 2007 ISPO congress. Silicon-containing materials and polymers are used all over the world and in a variety of industries, domestic products and high technology applications. Among them, silicones are certainly the most well–known, however there are still new properties discovered and preparative processes developed all the time, therefore adding to their potential. Less known, but in preparation for the future, are other silicon containing-polymers which are now close to maturity and in fact some are already available like polysilsesquioxanes and polysilanes. All these silicon based materials can adopt very different structures like chains, dendrimers, hyperbranched and networks, physical and chemical gels. The result is a vast array of materials with applications in various areas such as optics, electronics, ionic electrolytes, liquid crystals, biomaterials, ceramics and concrete, paints and coatings ... all needed to face the environmental, energetical and technological issues of today. Some industrial aspects of the applications of these materials will also be presented.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Even though there is no generally accepted definition of nanotechnologies to be defined as distinct discipline there is an emerging consensus that their advent and development is a growing in importance factor of the contemporary and future technological civilization. One of these most fundamental issues we are confronted with is the compatibility with life itself. From single cell organisms to humans, carbon is a key building block of all molecular structures of life. In contrast the man created electronic industry to build on other elements, of which silicon is the most common. Both carbon and silicon create molecular chains, although different in their internal structure. All life is built from carbon-based chains. As long as the man built technological products do not directly interfere with the physiology of life the associated risks from them are relatively easy to identify. They are primarily in the environmental pollution and the possibility of upsetting the natural balance of biocoenosis, on a planetary scale. The basic life functions are still not directly subverted. We can use TV, computers, drive cars and use other technological utilities without fear of direct interference with our cellular functions. This is in particular because all these technological utilities are many orders of magnitude larger than typical scales of biological activity. Most of biological activity, from fermentative catalysis to DNA replication takes place on nanoscale. The situation is radically different when the technological goals are building nanoscale size products. All biological processes take place on nanoscale.

This book was released on 2021-06-02 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The development of a vector for the delivery of therapeutic drugs in a controlled and targeted fashion is still a major challenge in the treatment of many diseases. The conventional application of drugs may lead to many limitations including poor distribution, limited effectiveness, lack of selectivity and dose dependent toxicity. An efficient drug delivery system can address these problems. Recent nanotechnology advancements in the biomedical field have the potential to meet these challenges in developing drug delivery systems. Nanomaterials are changing the biomedical platform in terms of disease diagnosis, treatment and prevention. Nanomaterials aided drug delivery provides an advantage by enhancing aqueous solubility that leads to improved bioavailability, increased resistance time in the body, decreased side effects by targeting drugs to the specific location, reduced dose dependent toxicity and protection of drugs from early release. In this two-part book, the contributors have compiled reports of recent studies illustrating the promising nanomaterials that can work as drug carriers which can navigate conventional physiological barriers. A detailed account of several types of nanomaterials including polymeric nanoparticles, liposomes, dendrimers, micelles, carbon nanomaterials, magnetic nanoparticles, solid lipid-based nanoparticles, silica nanomaterials and hydrogels for drug delivery is provided in separate chapters. The contributors also present a discussion on clinical aspects of ongoing research with insights towards future prospects of specific nanotechnologies. Part II covers the following topics: · Solid lipid nanoparticles and nanostructured lipid carriers · Silica based nanomaterials · Hydrogels · Metallic nanoparticles · Computational and experimental binding interactions of drug and β-cyclodextrin · Clinical milestones in nanotherapeutics · Drug delivery systems based on poly(lactide-co-glycolide) and its copolymers The book set is an informative resource for scholars who seek updates in nanomedicine with reference to nanomaterials used in drug delivery systems.

This book was released on 2014 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In today's nanotechnology, a critical issue is to gain the ability to control the structure and function of matter with a deeper understanding of the quantitative and qualitative relationship among their synthesis conditions, structures, and properties. Experiments may provide information regarding the behavior of nanomaterials, but their interpretations are often controversial due largely to the difficulty of direct measurement. Hereupon, with the amazing advance in computer technology since the late 20th century, computational modeling in science and engineering is increasingly important particularly in the fields of nanoscience and nanotechnology while it can provide researchers with significant insights into atomic-level interactions in various materials systems and underlying fundamental theories. The ability of engineering thermal conductivity of materials on the nanoscale has become extremely important in various applications including electronics and energy storage/conversion technologies. Due to technical difficulties in experimentally measuring the thermal conductivity of disordered and complex nanostructures, there has been much interest in use of theoretical and computational methods to investigate thermal transport properties nanostructured materials. One computational method that can perform an accurate analysis for the thermal conductivity of new or complex systems is molecular dynamics (MD), due to its capability of predicting the behaviors of atoms in large systems. In this work, we have developed a comprehensive MD-based computational platform capable of predicting and explaining thermal transport in disordered and complex nanostructured materials. The unique features include construction of realistic nanostructures, determination of reliable force fields, and direct simulation of large systems, which are allowed by coupling various state-of-the-art computational methods including quantum mechanics, molecular mechanics, statistical theories, and massively parallel computing. The computational scheme was applied to describe thermal transport in various silicon and carbon-based disordered and nanostructures. First, the effects of defects including vacancy clusters, substitutional dopants, and dopant-defect complexes on the thermal conductivity of bulk crystalline silicon were investigated. Next, we analyzed the factors affecting heat transport in silicon-germanium and ternary silicon-germanium-tin alloys. Lastly, we performed the analysis of heat transport in silicon-based nanostructures such as nanowires and polycrystalline structures.

Download or read book Nanotechnology written by Mick Wilson and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2002-06-27 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The emergence of nanoscience portends a revolution in technology that will soon impact virtually every facet of our technological lives. Yet there is little understanding of what it is among the educated public and often among scientists and engineers in other disciplines. Furthermore, despite the emergence of undergraduate courses on the subject, no basic textbooks exist. Nanotechnology: Basic Science and Emerging Technologies bridges the gap between detailed technical publications that are beyond the grasp of nonspecialists and popular science books, which may be more science fiction than fact. It provides a fascinating, scientifically sound treatment, accessible to engineers and scientists outside the field and even to students at the undergraduate level. After a basic introduction to the field, the authors explore topics that include molecular nanotechnology, nanomaterials and nanopowders, nanoelectronics, optics and photonics, and nanobiometrics. The book concludes with a look at some cutting-edge applications and prophecies for the future. Nanoscience will bring to the world technologies that today we can only imagine and others of which we have not yet dreamt. This book lays the groundwork for that future by introducing the subject to those outside the field, sparking the imaginations of tomorrow's scientists, and challenging them all to participate in the advances that will bring nanotechnology's potential to fruition.
