Hybrid Nanocomposites for Nanotechnology: Electronic, Optical, Magnetic and Biomedical Applications

By Lhadi Merhari

Book Overview

This book covers the latest advances in polymer-inorganic nanocomposites, with particular focus on high-added-value applications in fields including electronics, optics, magnetism and biotechnology. The unique focus of this book is on electronic, optical, magnetic and biomedical applications of hybrid nanocomposites. Coverage includes: Synthesis methods and issues and production scale-up: methods for making organic-inorganic nanocomposites on the laboratory scale, for production up-scaling and quality control. Individual chapters concentrate on one of these, offering details and highlighting challenges.

Characterization methods: These are tied to the intended applications, focusing on quality control after synthesis of organic-inorganic nanocomposites.

Electronic applications: These encompass resists for microelectronics, low-k/high-k dielectric films.

Optical applications and Photonics: These applications include linear and non-linear optical devices, and encapsulation of active optical devices.

Magnetic applications: These encompass non-traditional recording media and new magnetic materials.

Biomedical applications: "Hot" applications including bio-resists, tissue engineering, biocompatibility and bio-sensors.

The book offers readers a solid grasp of the state of the art, and of current challenges in non-traditional applications of hybrid nanocomposites.
