DESCRIPTION:
His current scientific interest includes the application of nanotechnologies for the conservation of works of art. She worked as a visiting scientist at the University of Florence, Italy, with Professor Dante Gatteschi, where she was involved in the magnetic characterization of nanoparticle monolayers on silicon substrates. Claudia Altavilla graduated in chemistry (cum laude) in 2001 from the University of Catania, Italy. He has also published over 100 scientific papers.
"A quick perusal of the Table of Contents will reveal reviews of a vast range of nanoparticle applications delivered by experts in their fields … the editors emphasize applications of nanoparticles, with detailed treatments of topics … For a reader desiring a broad view of nanoparticle technology from the first decade of the 21st century, this book provides an excellent starting point."Douglas S. English, Wichita State University in the Journal of the American Chemical Society
Discussing advances in materials, device fabrication, and large-scale productionall of which are urgently required to reduce global energy demandsthey cover innovations in areas such as solid-state lighting, detailing how it still offers higher efficiency but higher costs, compared to conventional lighting. Inorganic Nanoparticles: Synthesis, Applications, and Perspectives presents an overview of these special materials and explores the myriad ways in which they are used. Among the various nanomaterials, inorganic nanoparticles are extremely important in modern technologies. They can be easily and cheaply synthesized and mass produced, and for this reason, they can also be more readily integrated into applications. Versatile as either a professional research resource or textbook, this effective tool elucidates fundamentals and current advances associated with design, characterization, and application development of this promising and ever-evolving device.. It addresses a wide range of topics, including: Application of nanoparticles in magnetic storage media Use of metal and oxide nanoparticles to improve performance of oxide thin films as conducting media in commercial gas and vapor sensors Advances in semiconductors for light-emitting devices and
