Dynamical Properties in Nanostructured and Low-Dimensional Materials (Second Edition)
The dramatic advances that started two decades ago in the growth, fabrication and characterisation of low-dimensional materials have continued, with important developments in the seven years since the first edition of this book. Examples of novel materials include two-dimensional graphene, van der Waals magnets and nanostructures. In parallel, there have been improvements in theoretical and simulation methods.
In particular, the areas relating to magnetic excitations, mixed (or hybrid) excitations, and nonlinear excitations have all been very active. Most studies of these artificially engineered materials have been driven by their potential for device applications that involve smaller and smaller physical dimensions.
Recently the patterning of nanoelements, into periodic and other arrays, has become a focus of intense activity. The nonlinear properties of the excitations are increasingly of interest, as well as the linear dynamics.
This book is suitable for physicists, chemists, materials scientists and engineers (in universities, research labs and industry).
