Growth And Characterization Of Semiconductor Nanostructure For Device Applications

This book is intended to provide knowledge for students and learners in the field of nanoscale science and nanotechnology. Nanotechnology is design fabrication and application of nanostructures or nanomaterials and the fundamental understanding of the relationships between physical properties or phenomena and material dimensions. Nanotechnology deals with materials or structures in nanometer scales typically ranging from subnanometers to several hundred nanometers. Nanotechnology is a new field or a new scientific domain. Similar to quantum mechanics on nanometer scale materials or structures may possess new physical properties or exhibit new physical phenomena. Nanotechnology has an extremely broad range of potential applications from nanoscale electronics and optics and therefore it requires formation of and contribution from multidisciplinary teams of physicists chemists materials scientists and engineers. The aim of this book “Growth and Characterization of Semiconductor Nanostructure for Device Applications” is to summarize the fundamentals and established techniques of synthesis fabrication characterization and applications of nanomaterials and nanostructures so as to provide readers a systematic and coherent picture about synthesis fabrication and characterization of nanomaterials.
