Low-Dimensional Materials, Systems, and Applications showcases the complexities and uniqueness of low-dimensional materials and highlights the most recent discoveries in the field. Low-dimensional nanoscale materials are challenging as they exhibit properties distinctly different from their bulk counterparts. There is a drastic increase of reactivity at the molecular level due to high surface-to-volume ratios in these low-dimensional materials thereby modifying their properties like electronic, magnetic, optical, photonic, chemical and mechanical properties to a large extent. This book highlights the state-of-the-art theoretical and experimental descriptions of the complexities, unique properties, and latest applications of low-dimensional materials and quantum structures. The book is primarily for researchers working on the simulation, fabrication, analysis, and uses of low-dimensional (two-dimensional, one-dimensional, zero-dimensional) materials including materials scientists, condensed matter physicists, chemists, electrical engineers, and bio-technologists. Applications encompass electronic, optoelectronic, magnetic, photonic, plasmonic, biomedical and bioengineering.
