Preface
Tutorial lectures given by world-renowned researchers have become one of the important traditions of the Nano and Giga Challenges (NGC) conference series. Soon after preparations had begun for the first forum, NGC2002,1 in Moscow, Russia, the organizers realized that publication of the lectures notes would be a valuable legacy of the meeting and a significant educational resource and knowledge base for students, young researchers, and senior experts. Our first book was published by Elsevier and received the same title as the meeting itself—Nano and Giga Challenges in Microelectronics.2 Our second book, Nanotechnology for Electronic Materials and Devices,3 based on the tutorial lectures at NGC20044 in Krakow, Poland, the third book from NGC20075 in Phoenix, Arizona, and the current book from joint NGC2009 and CSTC20096 meeting in Hamilton, Ontario, have been published in Springer’s Nanostructure Science and Technology series. Hosted by McMaster University, the meeting NGC/CSTC 2009 was held as a joint event of two conference series, Nano and Giga Challenges (Nano & Giga Forum) and Canadian Semiconductor Technology Conferences (CSTC), bringing together the networks and expertise of both professional forums. Informational (electronics and photonics), renewable energy (solar systems, fuel cells, and batteries), and sensor (nano and bio) technologies have reache
