Summary

• "Written to help professionals, researchers, and students discover the challenges and opportunities associated with development of next-generation nanoscale computational nanotechnology, this book covers a broad range of technical information, research ideas, and practical knowledge regarding applications in this area. Offering thought-provoking perspective on the developments that are poised to revolutionize the field, the author explores both existing and future nanotechnology applications, which hold great promise for significant innovations in engineering, physics, chemistry, biology, and medicine"--Provided by publisher.
• "Preface Nanotechnology and nanoscience have now emerged as the leading fields to a technological revolution in the new millennium. Nanotechnology involves research across disciplines such as engineering, physics, chemistry, biology, and medicine. It engages in the science of matter that is smaller than 100 nm. Therefore, the ability to manipulate atoms at the nanoscale helps scientists create tiny devices the size of a few atoms for many applications such as consumer supplies, electronics, and computers in the development of molecular-sized transistors for the memory of microcomputers, as well as in the fields of information and biotechnology, aerospace, energy, and environment, and in the improvement of drug delivery in identifying cancer cells in medicine, in energy productions, etc. Using nanotechnology brings many benefits to industry as it requires little labor and low cost. This book can be used as a reference by engineers, scientists, and biologists who are involved in the computational techniques of nanotechnology. It has been written for professionals, researchers, and students who need to discover the challenges and the opportunities concerning the development of the next generation of nanoscale computational nanotechnology: modeling and applications with MATLABʼ. It provides a broad spectrum of technical information, research ideas, and practical knowledge regarding nanotechnology applications, and intends to provide a thought-provoking perspective on how nanotechnology is poised to revolutionize the field of computational nanotechnology. It also describes emerging nanotechnology applications as well as nanotechnology applications under development that hold promise for significant innovations in engineering, physics, chemistry, biology, and medicine"--Provided by publisher.
