Yalçın O. Nanorods

InTech, 2012, 250 pages, ISBN: 9789535102090, 9535102090.The book Nanorods is an overview of the fundamentals and applications of nanosciences and nanotechnologies. Nanoscience, nanotechnology and nanomaterials have become a central field of scientific and technical activity. Over the last years the interest in nanostructures and their applications in various electronic devices, effective optoelectronic devices, bio-sensors, photodetectors, solar cells, nanodevices, plasmonic structures has been increasing tremendously. This is caused by the unique properties of nanostructures and the outstanding performance of nanoscale devices. Nanorods is a new and interesting subject, which undergo revolutionary changes in the last years in the nanoscience and nanotechnology.There are eleven chapters in the book Nanorods and each chapter is about a different point of nanorods. This is a basic book for students, researchers and engineers. The chapters in this book are clear, to the point, and appealing. There are many methods for the fabrications of nanostructures (nanorods, nanoparticles, quantum dots, nanocrystals, nanowires, nanowhiskers, hybrid nanostructures and etc.). The methods described in this book are very powerful and have practical applications in the subjects of nanorods. The potential applications of nanorods are very attractive for bio-sensor, magneto-electronic, magneto-sensor, plasmonic state, nano-transistor, data storage media, microwave electronic devices in high frequency region, etc. This book is of interest to both fundamental research such as the one conducted in Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Material Science, Medicine etc., and also to practicing scientists, students, researchers in applied material sciences and engineers.ZnO Nanorods Arrays and Heterostructures for the High Sensitive UV Photodetection.
