Highlights of the book

  • Dimension of nanoregime
  • Nanotechnology in the ancient days and nature
  • Moore's law and nanoelectronics
  • Different types of nanomaterials—0D, 1D, 2D and 3D
  • Bulk nanomaterials—nanocrystalline materials, nanocomposites, nanoporous materials, metal–organic frameworks (MOFs), porous organic polymers (POPs), inorganic–organic hybrid nanocomposites
  • Quantum mechanics of low dimensional systems
  • Quantum confinement (QC) effect
  • Jellium model of metallic nanoclusters, magic sized nanoclusters–structural magic number vs electronic magic number
  • Electrical properties—ballistic transport, Coulomb blockade
  • Magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) and superparamagnetism (SPM), magnetic data storage
  • Surface properties,Wulf planes and crystallite shape
  • Mechanical properties—Hall–Petch strengthening
  • Stabilization of nanoparticles—electrostatic (DLVO theory) and polymeric (steric) stabilizations, properties of polymer solution: Good solvent, bad solvent, nonsolvent and theta state
  • Nanoparticles: Semiconductors vs metals; silicon quantum dots (SQDs); carbon dots (CDs)
  • Optical properties—fluorescent emission of semiconductor quantum dots and surface plasmon resonance (SPR) spectra of plasmonic metallic nanoparticles
  • Nanotechnology of colour: Photonic crystals (PCs) and structure colour, semiconductor QDs, plasmonic metallic nanoparticles
  • Core–shell nanoparticles (CSNPs) and their optical properties, gold nanoparticles (GNPs), gold nanoshells (GNSs), hollow gold nanoparticles (HGNPs)
  • Carbon nanoworld—fullerenes, graphenes and their synthesis, carbon nanotubes and carbon dots (CDs)
  • Synthesis of nanomaterials—vapour and solution phases; controlling of particle size distribution
  • Characterization of nanomaterials—SPM, STM, AFM, SEM, TEM, XRD and crystallite size determination (Scherrer equation), EDX (EDS),AES, EELS, XPS (ESCA), XRF, XAS – XAFS, XANES, NEXAFS and EXAFS

Asim K Das

Asim K. Das, BSc (1st Class 1st, CU), MSc (Gold Medalist, CU), PhD (CU), DSc (Visva Bharati), is currently Professor in the Department of Chemistry at Visva Bharati University, Santiniketan, West Bengal. He has over 30 years of teaching experience at both undergraduate and postgraduate levels. He completed his BSc (Hons in Chemistry, 1981) and MSc (specialization in Inorganic Chemistry, 1983), standing First Class First from the University of Calcutta. He received his PhD from the University of Calcutta under the supervision of Prof. D. Banerjea, then Sir Rashbehari Ghose Professor of Chemistry, and earned his DSc from Visva Bharati University in 2002. Dr. Das has published over 80 research papers in national and international journals, focusing on the thermodynamic and kinetic aspects of metal complexes.
