Nanotechnology: A Very Short Introduction
What is Nanotechnology and how will it affect us? Nanotechnology is a staple of science fiction and has a rather chequered history when it comes to public perception: will swarms of sentient nanomachines ultimately take over the world or will nanotech give us nothing more than improved sun creams? Nanobots, nanoprobes, nanoswarms, nanogenes the list goes on.
Moriarty includes results from ground-breaking scientific studies, such as scanning probe microscope images of atomic and As this Very Short Introduction shows, the science underpinning nanotechnology is equally as fascinating as the best nano-inspired sci-fi.In this book, Philip Moriarty introduces the key scientific themes and concepts underpinning the field, including interatomic and intermolecular forces, single atom imaging, quantum confinement, self-assembly, molecular machinery, and nanomagnetism.
