Inhaltsangabe

The miniaturization of bulky devices and machines is a process that confronts us on a daily basis. However, nanoscale machines with varied and novel characteristics may also result from the enlargement of extremely small building blocks, namely individual molecules. This bottom-up approach to nanotechnology is already being pursued in information technology, with many other branches about to follow. Written by a team of experienced authors headed by Vincenzo Balzani, one of the pioneers in the development of molecular machines Covers such diverse aspects as sensors, memory components, solar energy conversion, biomolecules as molecular machines, and much more Presented in a lucid style and didactically structured, with both the expert and the newcomer in mind Includes a glossary of terms and numerous references to the recent literature Be among the first to explore the fascinating possibilities of this future-oriented technology! A must-have for every chemist and materials scientist with an interest in nanotechnology.
