This practical guide provides an orientation in the nanocarbon terminology jungle. It explains in simple language why not all carbon nanotubes are metallic, relates bucky bamboo to multi-wall nanotubes and onions to fullerenes, and answers whether graphene pseudospin is related to magnetism (it is not). Simple formulas to estimate size, energy and spectroscopic data of carbon nanostructures as well as linked primary key literature citations come handy to researchers. The simple glossary format with over 300 entries, over 100 figures and over 2000 cross-references helps to quickly identify (in…mehr

Produktbeschreibung
This practical guide provides an orientation in the nanocarbon terminology jungle. It explains in simple language why not all carbon nanotubes are metallic, relates bucky bamboo to multi-wall nanotubes and onions to fullerenes, and answers whether graphene pseudospin is related to magnetism (it is not). Simple formulas to estimate size, energy and spectroscopic data of carbon nanostructures as well as linked primary key literature citations come handy to researchers. The simple glossary format with over 300 entries, over 100 figures and over 2000 cross-references helps to quickly identify (in contrast to a web search) relevant information for most topics related to nanocarbons. The compendium is rounded off with tables including the time lines of fullerenes, nanotubes and graphene, illustrating the growing interest in the field of carbon nanostructures. Supplementary information, linked to each entry, is a dynamically growing resource containing multimedia material, additional references and links.

Autorenporträt
David Tománek studied physics in Switzerland and received his PhD from the Free University in Berlin. While holding a position as Assistant Professor of Physics in Berlin, he engaged in theoretical research in nanostructures at the AT&T Bell Laboratories and the University of California at Berkeley. He established the ¿eld of computational nanotechnology at Michigan State University, where he holds a position as Full Professor of Physics. His scienti¿c expertise lies in the development and application of numerical techniques for structural, electronic and optical properties of surfaces, low-dimensional systems and nanostructures. Since working on his PhD thesis, he has promoted the use of computer simulations to understand atomic-level processes at surfaces and in atomic clusters.
