Research and Markets has added "Atomic and Molecular Manipulation Frontiers of Nanoscience Part No. 2" from Elsevier to their offering.
Research conducted on single atoms and molecules demonstrates that miniature optical, electronic, mechanical, and magnetic equipment can effectively operate even at the single atomic or molecular level. Molecular and atomic manipulation has contributed to the development of the nanoscience field in a big way.
New techniques have been formulated to illustrate and control varied degrees of freedom of single molecules and atoms with high level of accuracy. These techniques work based on the scanning tunneling microscope’s principle. New techniques are also being formulated to develop substrates and molecules with certain mechanical, optical, and electronic properties. These new methods can be used to develop nano-machines.
Working with single atoms and molecules has revealed new insights in the areas of research and knowledge, thus raising basic questions. This book aims to demonstrate the vital concepts of ongoing scientific journey and to predict the major issues involved in "Atomic and molecular manipulation" for use in fabrication of atomic-scale equipment.
Some of the important topics include elementary processes of molecular manipulation, molecular dynamics of localized reactions, vibrational processes at the atomic scale, and theory of atomic and molecular manipulation. The book also covers topics such as STM manipulation of single atoms and molecules on insulating films, mechanical properties of molecular machinery at the nanoscale, and imaging and force measurement of single molecules with the AFM.
