Preface

Innovation of new materials with novel properties presents the driving force for technology development. Materials properties are not only governed by the atomic composition and the chemical bonding, but also by the dimensions of the material. Interesting properties arise when a material system approaches the molecular scales. At such small nm-scale dimensions, materials inherit some of the remarkable properties of molecules, resulting in unique physic
