Encyclopedia of Semiconductor Nanotechnology is the first encyclopedia ever published in the field of semiconductor nanotechnology. This mulvolume encyclopedia covers a wide variety of advanced and emerging developments and achievements in the area of semiconductor nanotechnology. It covers the theorecal and experimental aspects of semiconductor nanomaterials dealing with materials design, synthesis, growth, spectroscopic characterizaons, fabricaon, processing, nanostructure modeling, structural-properes relaonships, and fabricaon of nanodevices. Most of the significant developments made in the areas of sensors, electronics, optoelectronics, photonics, biomedical, magnec, and environmental-based devices are mainly related to semiconductor materials. The interdisciplinary research nature of semiconductor nanostructures and their applicaons is well-reflected in each volume of this encyclopedia. Each state-of-the-art review chapter, discussing various aspects of semiconductor nanotechnology and ranging from growth, fabricaon, and characterizaon of semiconductor nanomaterials to their diverse nanodevice applicaons, is self-contained with sufficient cross-references and wrien in a clear and concise fashion.
