About the Book

The miniaturization of bulky devices and machines is a process that confronts us on a daily basis. However, nanoscale machines with varied and novel characteristics may also result from the enlargement of extremely small building blocks, namely individual molecules. This bottom-up approach to nanotechnology is already being pursued in information technology, with many other branches about to follow. - Written by a team of experienced authors headed by Vincenzo Balzani, one of the pioneers in the development of molecular machines - Covers such diverse aspects as sensors, memory components, solar energy conversion, biomolecules as molecular machines, and much more - Presented in a lucid style and didactically structured, with both the expert and the newcomer in mind - Includes a glossary of terms and numerous references to the recent literature Be among the first to explore the fascinating possibilities of this future-oriented technology! A must-have for every chemist and materials scientist with an interest in nanotechnology.

Review :
"Im Gegensatz zu manchen anderen Büchern und Monographien, die sich mit diesem Thema beschäftigen, zeichnet sich dieses Buch durch ein sehr gutes Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis aus. Abstriche bei der Qualität der Ausführung oder bei der Verwendung von Farbe wurden dafür nicht gemacht, Mit dem Preis vonn 99 Euro für 465 Seiten hat das Verlagshaus Wiley-VCH wieder ein erstklassiges Buch aufgelegt und gleichzeitig seine Reihe zur "über das einzelne Molekül hinausgehenden" Chemie fortgesetzt." www.wissenschaft-online.de "Dieser Typ interdisziplinärer Wissenschaft und "molekularer Technologie" benötigt weiterhin begeisterte Wissenschaftler. Für sie und viele mehr ist dieses wunderbare Buch Muss und Motivation zugleich." Angewandte Chemie "Zusammenfassend erreicht das Buch als gelungene Zusammenstellung der Konzepte und Sammlung bisheriger Forschungsarbeiten eine sehr breite Leserschaft und ist sowohl als Grundlage für einschlägige Vorlesungen geeignet, als für den interessierten Laien zum Selbststudium."
