Ebook: Nanomanufacturing Handbook

Scrutinizing the prevalent hurdles to commercial scale-up of nanotechnologies, the Nanomanufacturing Handbook presents a broad survey of the research being done to bring nanotechnology out of the laboratory and into the factory. The book collects cutting-edge research from top experts who examine such topics as surface-programmed assembly, fabrication and applications of carbon nanotubes, manufacturing nanoelectrical contacts, room-temperature nanoimprint and nanocontact technologies, nanocontacts and switch reliability, defects and surface preparation, and other innovative, application-driven initiatives. It also includes a unique survey of the current state of nanomanufacturing in the US.
