NANOSCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY

Nanocatalysis

 

NanoScience and Technology Series Editors: P. Avouris B. Bhushan D. Bimberg K. von Klitzing H. Sakaki R. Wiesendanger The series NanoScience and Technology is focused on the fascinating nano-world, mesoscopic physics, analysis with atomic resolution, nano and quantum-effect devices, nanomechanics and atomic-scale processes. All the basic aspects and technology-oriented developments in this emerging discipline are covered by comprehensive and timely books. The series constitutes a survey of the relevant special topics, which are presented by leading experts in the f ield. These books will appeal to researchers, engineers, and advanced students.
