Nanoscale Physics for Materials Science - Tsurumi, Takaaki a Hirayama, Hiroyuki a Vacha, Martin a Taniyama, Tomoyasu

Exploring the electrical, optical, and magnetic properties of materials at the nanoscale level, this text covers fundamental cross-disciplinary concepts in materials science and engineering. It presents a description of the physical phenomena and changes that can be expected when macroscopically sized materials are reduced to the nanometer level.
