Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the beginning it was lite and from the clerestory shows the luminescent. There was no other light except that coveted in the derelict grand building. All surrounding it was dark amidst the night. There was only a photon of light that burns ardor from the luminescent. It was silence throughout the night and the candle was lite. All around there was no sound except the burning of the wick and its ignition. There seems to be no life except the motion that was occurring from the candle wick burning the wax that was left in eldritch contour. There was transformation. -Carol Thuy Pham

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Meeting the demand for a readily understandable introduction to nanomaterials and nanotechnology, this textbook specifically addresses the needs of students - and engineers - who need to get the gist of nanoscale phenomena in materials without having to delve too deeply into the physical and chemical details. The book begins with an overview of the consequences of small particle size, such as the growing importance of surface effects, and covers successful, field-tested synthesis techniques of nanomaterials. The largest part of the book is devoted to the particular magnetic, optical, electrical and mechanical properties of materials at the nanoscale, leading on to emerging and already commercialized applications, such as nanofluids in magnetic resonance imaging, high-performance nanocomposites and carbon nanotube-based electronics. Based on the author's experience in teaching nanomaterials courses and adapted, in style and level, for students with only limited background knowledge, the textbook includes further reading, as well as information boxes that can be skipped upon first reading.
