About this ebook

Nanotechnology: An Introduction, Third Edition provides a comprehensive overview of the rapidly growing and developing field of nanotechnology. The book is ideal for those new to nanotechnology, as well as individuals with a strong background in traditional disciplines such as physics, mechanical or electrical engineering, chemistry, biology, or those with experience in microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) technology. Fully updated to include the latest developments and trends on nanoscale approaches to toxicology, sustainability, and artificial intelligence, this book covers all essential aspects of chemistry, physical properties, design, manufacture, and applications, highlighting their impact on various nanotechnology areas.By combining principles, theory, and practical applications, this authoritative introduction provides a broad understanding of the possibilities and limitations in the field of nanotechnology. It serves as a valuable source of information for both academia and industry research and development. - Provides an overview of the rapidly growing and developing field of nanotechnology - Includes the latest developments in regenerative medicine, the nanoscale approach to toxicology, 2D materials, molecular cybernetics, lithium-ion batteries, artificial intelligence, computational mathematics, nanotechnology sustainability, the circular economy, and more - Brings together the principles, theory, and practice of nanotechnology, giving a broad, yet authoritative introduction to the possibilities and limitations of this exciting and rapidly developing field

About the author

Jeremy Ramsden was educated at the Universities of Cambridge and Princeton and the Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne (EPFL), where he obtained his doctorate in the Institute of Chemical Physics for research into photocatalytic semiconductor nanoparticles. He was a visiting scientist at the Biocenter (Institute of Biophysics) of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences in Szeged (1987), after which he worked at the Biocenter (Institute of Biophysical Chemistry) of the University of Basle (member of the Faculty of Natural Philosophy) until being appointed (2002) Professor and Chair of Nanotechnology at Cranfield University in the UK. From 2003–9 he was also Research Director for Nanotechnology at Cranfield University at Kitakyushu in Japan. In 2012 he moved to the University of Buckingham (UK) as Honorary Professor of Nanotechnology. His main research focus nowadays is on nanosensors. He is a Fellow of the Institute of Materials, Minerals and Mining (London) and a IUPAC Fellow.
