Photoactive Semiconductor Nanocrystal Quantum Dots
The series Topics in Current Chemistry Collections presents critical reviews from the journal Topics in Current Chemistry organized in topical volumes. The scope of coverage is all areas of chemical science including the interfaces with related disciplines such as biology, medicine and materials science. The goal of each thematic volume is to give the non-specialist reader, whether in academia or industry, a comprehensive insight into an area where new research is emerging which is of interest to a larger scientific audience. Each review within the volume critically surveys one aspect of that topic and places it within the context of the volume as a whole. The most significant developments of the last 5 to 10 years are presented using selected examples to illustrate the principles discussed. The coverage is not intended to be an exhaustive summary of the field or include large quantities of data, but should rather be conceptual, concentrating on the methodological thinking that will allow the non-specialist reader to understand the information presented. Contributions also offer an outlook on potential future developments in the field.
Luminescent Nanomaterials
In recent decades, luminescent nanomaterials have generated great interest in the scientific community due to their unique properties, which are different from those of their bulk counterparts, and their use in a wide variety of applications. Today, luminescent nanomaterials are used in a number of applications such as displays, solid-state lighting, solar cells, long afterglow, dosimetry, theft prevention, medical imaging, phototherapy, and quantum and gas sensing. This book presents cutting-edge research from experts in the field of synthesis and characterization of luminescent nanomaterials and their potential applications. It covers interesting topics in semiconductor physics, photochemistry, physical chemistry, materials science, and luminescence, and will be useful for beginners and advanced researchers interested in this field.
Nanomaterials for Energy and Sensor Applications
Nowadays, most of the research focuses on nanomaterials in which one of the dimensions falls in the 1-100 nm range. These nanomaterials can be thin films, quantum dots, nanowires, nanopyramids, and nanoclusters. Thus, nanomaterials are impacting almost all aspects of materials for various applications in emerging energy and sensor devices. The book comprises ten chapters and discusses nanomaterial applications in energy, solar cells, water splitting, sensors, etc. The book caters to budding researchers’ needs in synthesizing nanomaterials and post-graduate students.
Chromic Phenomena 3rd Edition
Chromic or colour related phenomena are produced in response to a chemical or physical stimulus. This new edition will update the information on all those areas where chemicals or materials interact with light to produce colour, a colour change, or luminescence especially in the imaging, analysis, lighting and display areas. The book has been restructured to show greater emphasis on applications where 'coloured' compounds are used to transfer energy or manipulate light in some way therefore reducing the details on classical dyes and pigments. In the past eight years, since the previous edition, there has been a remarkable increase in the number of papers and reviews being produced reflecting the growth of interest in this area. This ongoing research interest is matched by a large number of new technological applications gaining commercial value covering e.g. biomedical areas, energy, data storage, physical colour, bio-inspired materials and photonics. This book appeals to industrial chemists, professionals, postgraduates and as high level recommended reading for colour technology courses.
Metal Ions and the Route to Life
Volume 28, entitled Metal Ions and the Route to Life, of the series Metal Ions in Life Sciences, advocates for the prime importance of the recognition of metal ions and metal-bearing minerals in the transition from inanimate matter to first life on our planet. Unlike the relatively unreactive organic molecules, the traditional protagonists of orthodox origin-of-life hypotheses, metals and minerals are natural catalysts, abundantly present in the majority of settings on the early Earth considered as conducive to bringing forth life. In these palaeogeochemical settings, they may have catalyzed the anabolic conversions of inorganic precursor molecules into organics and may have converted redox ...
Advanced Nanomaterials in Biomedical Implants: Processing, Structures, Properties and, Applications
Advanced Materials in Bioimplants: Processing and Applications thoroughly reviews the core concepts, processing routes, and applications of nanomaterials in bioimplants. Divided into three sections, this book systematically guides the reader through each stage of bioimplant materials development, helping them make informed decisions when selecting appropriate materials for their work. A range of implant nanomaterials is considered including smart, piezoelectric, magnetostrictive, and light nanomaterials. Various fabrication and synthesis techniques are detailed, as well as key applications as antiviral smart nanocoatings, loadbearing, flexible, wear-resistant nanomaterials, and futuristic bi...
