Synopsis

Low Dimensional Materials: Bridging the Fundamental Principles to Practice Applications provides an overview of research on low-dimensional materials, devices, and their applications. There are seven chapters in the book, starting from the basic quantum theory in chapter one, to the control and characterization of the unique structures (chapters two and four), to the relation of the physical and chemical properties with structures (chapter five), and to the practical and promising applications in energy, information, and health (chapter six), before conclusions and future outlook in chapter seven.

  • Discusses the whole field of low-dimensional materials, from quantum mechanics and low dimensional effects to structure-property relations, various methods of fabrication and assembly techniques, and a characterization of atomic and interface structures
  • Covers a wide range of topics, making it a 'map' for readers to understand the fundamentals of low-dimensional materials
  • Written with a 'bottom-up approach, with a solid foundation of quantum mechanics, thermodynamics, and energy transport in low-dimensional systems
