Summary

This collection represents a comprehensive treatment of the fundamental and practical consequences of size reduction in silicon crystals. It introduces readers to the optical, electrical and thermal properties of silicon nanocrystals that arise from their greatly reduced dimensions and covers their synthesis and characterization.
