Pradeep T. Textbook of Nanoscience and Nanotechnology

Tata McGraw-Hill Education Private Limited, 2012. — 1015 p. — ISBN13: 978-1-25-900732-3.Nanoscience and nanotechnology (NS&NT) manifests the convergence of various disciplines.
This convergence, although has resulted in the disappearance of boundaries, has also brought forth the uniqueness of specific areas and contributed to the creation of new disciplines. For example, nanobiotechnology is the result of convergence of nanotechnology and biotechnology, the uniqueness of science at the nanometer length scales has exposed completely new directions in this area. This may be stated for other sub-areas such as nanochemistry, nanomedicine, nanomaterials, etc. These branches of science have produced newer instrumentation, ethodologies and approaches. As a result, uniqueness of these areas can be observed, not only in the subject itself but also in the way in which these areas are pursued.Experimental Methods of Investigation
