Nanoelectronic Device Applications Handbook

Preface

This book has its genesis in the 11th International Conference on Nanotechnology, the IEEE Nanotechnology Council’s flagship conference, held in Portland, Oregon, 15–19 August 2011. This is first and foremost an engineering conference, with the research papers presented having more of an applied bias than is typical at most contemporary nanoscience and nanotechnology conferences which generally still focus on the science of this nascent field. The initial proposition was to bring the broadest possible range of this material to the attention of the wider nanotechnology community, but with nearly 400 presentations that was clearly impractical in one book. Nanomaterials was the largest single track, but an analysis and characterization of ...
