Samenvatting:

With physical properties that often may not be described by the transposition of physical laws from 3D space across to 2D or even 1D space, low-dimensional solids exhibit a high degree of anisotropy in the spatial distribution of their chemical bonds. This means that they can demonstrate new phenomena such as charge-density waves and can display nanoparticulate (0D), fibrous (1D) and lamellar (2D) morphologies.br/br/This text presents some of the most recent research into the synthesis and properties of these solids and covers:bulletlistbulletMetal Oxide NanoparticlesbulletInorganic Nanotubes and NanowiresbulletBiomedical Applications of Layered Double HydroxidesbulletCarbon Nanotubes and Related StructuresbulletSuperconducting Borides/bulletlistbr/br/br/br/Introducing topics such as novel layered superconductors, inorganic-DNA delivery systems and the chemistry and physics of inorganic nanotubes and nanosheets, this book discusses some of the most exciting concepts in this developing field.br/br/br/br/Additional volumes in the Inorganic Materials Book Series:br/br/Molecular Materialsbr/Functional Oxidesbr/Porous Materialsbr/Energy Materialsbr/br/All volumes are sold individually or as comprehensive 5 Volume Set.
