Description for Supercarbon
Hardback. Gives an introduction to the physics of nanotubes. This book is a status report on synthesis, properties and applications of new carbonaceous materials (defined as "pi-electron materials") with extended pi-electron clouds in the solid state, including graphite, fullerenes and carbon nanotubes. Editor(s): Yoshimura, Susumu (Japan Science and Technology Corporation, Kawasaki, Japan); Chang, R. P. H. (Northwestern University, Evanston, Illinois, USA). Series: Springer Series in Materials Science. Num Pages: 254 pages, biography. BIC Classification: TGM; TJFD. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (XV) Technical / Manuals. Dimension: 234 x 156 x 15. Weight in Grams: 1230.
The information revolution of the twentieth century was brought about by microelectronics based on a simple and common material, silicon. Although silicon will continue to be of central importance in the next century, carbon, silicon's upstairs neighbor in the periodic table, will also be of great impor tance in future technology. Carbon has more flexible bonding and hence has various unique physical, chemical and biological properties. It has two types of bonding, sp3 and sp2, in diamond and graphite, respectively. The existence of the latter, "7r-electron bonding" , is responsible for carbon's versatile tal ents. Those materials having extended 7r-electron ... Read more
