Progress in Nanotechnology [Paperback]

The fields of nanoscale science, engineering, and technology, more widely known as nanotechnology, have experienced an explosion of interest, both scientific and industrial, over the past decade. This book is a compilation of articles and papers previously published by ACerS on the topic of nanotechnology. Information on research and development, manufacturing, and marketing will provide an excellent reference resource for those involved in this field.

This collection includes 40 articles and papers from the Journal of the American Ceramic Society, Ceramic Transactions (CTs), Ceramic Engineering and Science Proceedings (CESP) and the American Ceramic Society Bulletin.
