	Molecular Building Blocks for Nanotechnology: From Diamondoids to Nanoscale Materials and Applications (Topics in Applied Physics) (No. 111) by G. Ali Mansoori (Editor), Thomas F. George (Editor), Lahsen Assoufid (Editor), Guoping Zhang (Editor) This book deals with a "bottom-up" approach to building nanostructured systems, where one starts with atoms and molecules, which constitute the molecular building blocks (MBBs), and assembles them to build a nanostructured material. Nanotechnology MBBs are distinguished for their unique properties. They include, for example, graphite, fullerene, carbon nanotubes, diamondoids, nanowires, nanocrystals and amino acids. All these MBBs, and more, are candidates for various applications in...
	Low-Dimensional Molecular Metals (Springer Series in Solid-State Sciences) by Naoki Toyota (Author), Michael Lang (Author), Jens Müller (Author) Assimilating new research in the field of low-dimensional metals, this monograph provides a detailed overview of the current status of research on quasi-one- and two-dimensional molecular metals, describing normal-state properties, magnetic field effects, superconductivity, and the phenomena of interacting p and d electrons. It will be useful not only for frontier researchers with a broad interest in low-dimensional electronic and magnetic properties, but also for graduate students of...
	Springer Handbook of Nanotechnology by Bharat Bhushan (Editor) Since 2004 the Springer Handbook of Nanotechnology has established itself as the definitive reference in the nanoscience and nanotechnology area. It integrates the knowledge from nanofabrication, nanodevices, nanomechanics, Nanotribology, materials science, and reliability engineering in just one volume. Beside the presentation of nanostructures, micro/nanofabrication, and micro/nanodevices, special emphasis is on scanning probe microscopy, nanotribology and nanomechanics, molecularly thick...

EDITORIAL REVIEWS

Product Description
Scanning and stationary-beam electron microscopes have become an indispensable tool for both research and routine evaluation in materials science, the semiconductor industry, nanotechnology, and the biological and medical sciences. Physical Principles of Electron Microscopy provides an introduction to the theory and current practice of electron microscopy for undergraduate students who want to acquire an appreciation of how basic principles of physics are utilized in an important area of applied science, and for graduate students and technologists who make use of electron microscopes. At the same time, this book will be equally valuable for university teachers and researchers who need a concise supplemental text that deals with the basic principles of microscopy.
