One-Dimensional Nanostructures: Principles and Applications

This book consolidates a wealth of current and complex information regarding one-dimensional nanostructures into one volume for practicing chemists, physicists, materials scientists, and engineers in industry and academia. One-dimensional nanostructures are both on the forefront of fundamental materials research and becoming part of our daily lives. More than fifteen worldwide experts provide in-depth chapters on their specific areas, including photodetectors, gas sensors, biosensors, chemical sensors, field-emitters, lasers, lithium-ion batteries, supercapacitors, light emitting diodes (LED), photovoltaics, nanogenerators, thermoelectrics, piezoelectrics, and field-effect transistors.
