Contents: Preface. 1. Concept of Nanotechnology. 2. Implications of Nanotechnology. 3. Applications in Nanotechnology. 4. Nanoelectronics. 5. Nanomaterials. 6 . Nanomedicine. 7. Molecular Self-assembly. 8. Nanolithography. 9. Molecular Nanotechnology.

Nanotechnology is one of the most significant intensification areas in the 21st century. Nanoscience, the science underpinning nanotechnology, is a multidisciplinary theme covering atomic, molecular and solid state physics, as well as a lot of chemistry. Nanostructures are known to exhibit novel and improved material properties. These occur because the physical as well as chemical properties are very different when dimensions re reduced to the nanometer range. This book thus aims to introduce the various basic principles and knowledge needed for students to understand nanotechnology.
