A Laboratory Course in Nanoscience and Nanotechnology
Autor Gerrard Eddy Jai Poinernen Limba Engleză Hardback – 6 dec 2014
Through a series of well-designed, classroom-tested lab experiments, students directly experience some of the magic of the nano world. The lab exercises give students hands-on skills to complement their theoretical studies. Moreover, the material in the book underscores the truly interdisciplinary nature of nanoscience, preparing students from physics, chemistry, engineering, and biology for work in nanoscience- and nanotechnology-related industries.
After introducing examples of nanometer-scale materials and structures found in nature, the book presents a range of nanometer-scale materials and the synthesis processes used to produce them. It then covers advanced characterization techniques for examining nanometer-scale materials and structures. It also addresses lab safety and the identification of potential hazards in the lab before explaining how to prepare a scientific report and present research results. In addition, the author discusses typical projects undertaken in nanotechnology labs, such as the analysis of samples using scanning electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy. The book concludes with a set of projects that students can do while collaborating with a mentor or supervisor.

Recenzii
"... provides a unique opportunity for students as well as professionals in academia and industry to learn how to synthesize nanomaterials. Clear and concise directions along with characterization methods provide the reader with a hands-on introduction to the world of nanomaterials. ... This is a great way to learn about many of the modem methods for nanomaterial preparation on a small scale."
—John J. Shea, IEEE Electrical Insulation Magazine, November/December 2015
"… with proper classroom guidance, the experiments described here, coupled with anecdotal examples the author provides on the utility of nanoparticles, could serve as a good basis for a full laboratory course."
—MRS Bulletin, Vol. 40, September 2015
"The laboratory manual is an excellent and timely addition to the resources available to teach undergraduate and postgraduate students working in the nanosciences. Written by an internationally recognized expert in the field, the material is well presented, making nanotechnology accessible to students from a wide range of backgrounds. The scope covers nano-related topics in physics, chemistry, biology, and materials science and includes underlying theory as well as many hands-on experiments that have all been well tested and refined over the years this course was taught by the author. The experiments are underpinned by comprehensive descriptions of nanomaterials and the very important techniques of sample characterization that reveal the full nature of the nano world. The presentation is visually attractive, with excellent illustrations. … This book is destined to become a much-loved and well-used classic."

Descriere
Although there are many theoretical nanotechnology and nanoscience textbooks available to students, there are relatively few practical laboratory-based books. Filling this need, this practical manual presents a hands-on approach to key synthesis techniques and processes currently used in nanotechnology and nanoscience. It shows undergraduate students how to synthesize their own nanometer-scale materials and structures and then analyze their results using advanced characterization techniques. Through a series of well-designed, classroom-tested lab experiments, students gain hands-on skills to complement their theoretical studies.
