About the Book: Textbook on Fundamentals and Applications of Nanotechnology
This book covers basic concepts and principles of nanotechnology, synthesis of
nano-materials by top down (Physical) and bottom up approaches (chemical and
biological), properties of nano-materials (physical, mechanical, optical,
magnetic and thermal), characterization of nano-materials (size, stability,
shape, functional group) using sophisticated equipments, application of
nanotechnology in various fields (agriculture, food systems, energy,
environment, health sciences) and biosafety of nano-materials (nanotoxicity and
assays used for testing the nanotoxicity).
