Résumé

This Handbook of Nanotechnology is intended to provide a reference to researchers in nanotechnology, offering readers a combination of tutorial material and review of the state of the art. This volume focuses on modeling and simulation at the nanoscale.

The leading researchers worldwide have contributed eight substantive chapters to this volue covering nanostructured thin films, photonic bandgap structures, quantum dots, carbon nanotubes, atomistic techniques, nanomechanics, nanofluidics, and quantum information processing. Modeling and simulation research on these topics has acquired a sufficient degree of maturity as to merit inclusion. While the intent is to serve as a reference source for expert researchers, there is sufficient content for novice researchers and students as well. The level of presentation in each chapter assumes a fundamental background at the level of an engineering or science graduate.
