| Summary |
"Offering a detailed summary of available modeling methods, both "top-down" and "bottom-up", this book offers systematic coverage of the use of modeling in the development and application of inorganic nano-materials in industry including sensors, optics, biotechnology, and solar cells. It provides readers with the necessary information to choose the right models and methods for describing particular physical and chemical properties of inorganic materials at varying length scales. Sections include Structure and Dimensionality; Thermodynamics and Nucleation; Magnetic, Optical, and Electronic and Transport Properties; and Case Studies"-- Provided by publisher |
