Methods For Creating And Analyzing Nanoparticles

Description

ABOUT THE BOOK

This book covers a wide range of techniques for the synthesis of nanoparticles. It includes both top-down and bottom-up approaches, such as mechanical milling (ball milling) and mechanical attrition for nanostructure formation, as well as methods like Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD), Physical Vapor Deposition (PVD) using thermal and e-beam evaporation, and Pulsed Laser Ablation (PLD). Chemical routes for synthesizing nanomaterials are discussed, including chemical precipitation, coprecipitation, chemical bath deposition (CBD), sol-gel synthesis, microemulsions, solvothermal synthesis, thermolysis routes, and spray pyrolysis.
The book also explains various lithography techniques, such as optical lithography with light sources, photo masks, alignment, and different photo resists. It explores electron beam lithography, nanolithography, and nanoimprint lithography. Additionally, it covers the preparation of amorphous materials, metallic glasses, and thermal evaporation techniques like sputtering, CVD techniques, and quenching. The book delves into the theory of glass transition, glass transition temperature, and the structure of disordered materials. It discusses experimental techniques, electronic density of states, localization phenomena, transport properties, and optical and dielectric properties.
