Nano Physics

In general terms, the physics of nano-scale and molecular systems studies with scanning probes is called Nano Physics. Subject matters of Nano Physics that are covered in the chapters of this Encyclopaedia includes: Basics of Nano Physics and Nanotechnology; Integrating Physics, Computers and Nanotechnology; Historical Evolution and Development of Nanotubes; Applications of Nanotubes and Buckytubes in Conductive Plastics, Adhesives, Connectors and Other Areas; Recent Advances in Other Major Fields of Nanoscience, Nano Physics and Nanotechnology; Use of Nano Physics in Nano Labs and Nanotechnology Products; Major Applications & Utilities of Nano-optics; and Towards Explaining the Differences among Nanoscales Scanning, Nanosensors, Nanowires and Nanoribbons. This book deals briefly with the subject areas of nano-optics, nanotubes, nanofibres, nano-sensors, nanowires and nanoribbons. Keeping in mind the applications and utilities of Nano Physics for meeting the contemporary global energy requirements, it seems that this subject will become the core area of future nanoscience and nanotechnology research. This book is research friendly and future oriented. Some of the contemporary research areas in Global Nano Technology, Science and Physics research are included in this book.
