Virtual Synthesis Of Nanosystems By Design

Virtual Synthesis of Nanosystems by Design

This is the only book on a novel fundamental method that uses quantum many body theoretical approach to synthesis of nanomaterials by design. This approach allows the first-principle prediction of transport properties of strongly spatially non-uniform systems, such as small QDs and molecules, where currently used DFT-based methods either fail, or have to use empirical parameters. The book discusses modified algorithms that allow mimicking experimental synthesis of novel nanomaterials---to compare the results with the theoretical predictions--and provides already developed electronic templates of sub-nanoscale systems and molecules that can be used as components of larger materials/fluidic systems. - The only publication on quantum many body theoretical approach to synthesis of nano- and sub-nanoscale systems by design. - Novel and existing many-body field theoretical, computational methods are developed and used to realize the theoretical predictions for materials for IR sensors, light sources, information storage and processing, electronics, light harvesting, etc. Novel algorithms for EMD and NEMD molecular simulations of the materials' synthesis processes and charge-spin transport in synthesized systems are developed and described. - Includes the first ever models of Ni-O quantum wires supported by existing experimental data. - All-inclusive analysis of existing experimental data versus the obtained theoretical predictions and nanomaterials templates.

Towards Synthesis of Micro-/Nano-systems

At the beginning of the 21st century, manufacturing industry is faced with new challenges stemming from globalization and the need for environmental sustainability. The progress of micro-/nano technology means that precision engineering is now considered to be one of the core disciplines necessary for coping with the sometimes severe requirements of new product and system development. From basic research to practical applications, advanced process-technological methods for the design and synthesis of micro-/nano-systems are becoming more and more important. This collection of papers includes high-quality papers for industrial and scientific sources, discusses leading-edge technologies and forecasts future trends. Topics covered include but are not limited to: - advanced manufacturing systems, - ultra-precision- and micro-machining, - nanotechnology for fabrication and measurement, - rapid prototyping and production technology, - planning and scheduling for production and - CAD/CAE/CAM.
