Описание: Metrology is the science of measurements, and nanometrology is that part of metrology that relates to measurements at the nanoscale. Many governments and regulatory bodies worldwide have existing nanotechnology policies and are taking the preliminary steps towards nanometrology strategies, for example in support of pre-normative R&D and standardisation work. The applications and economic impact of thin films for nanotechnological products are large, and extend over a wide range of industry sectors. As buried layers, thin films are core to the performance of state-of-art microelectronics and magnetic data storage devices. Metrology and Diagnostic Techniques for Nanoelectronics highlights state of art developments in devoted to advancements in all the metrological aspects related to nanoscience and nanotechnology, critical for continuing technology scaling and product innovation. It offers an inclusive overview of engineering metrology and how it relates to micro and nanotechnology research and manufacturing. By combining established knowledge with the latest advances from the field, it presents a comprehensive single volume, written by renowned experts in the respective fields that can be used for professionals, researcher, practitioners and students. It is a complete guide for metrology and diagnostic techniques essential for process technology, electronics packaging, and product development and debugging. The semiconductor industry faces significant challenges to continue increasing performance and functionality of information processing. New and improved metrology and characterisation is required to support these advances in density and functionality. This book brings together scientists and engineers interested in all aspects of the characterisation technology needed for nanoelectronic materials and device research, development, and manufacturing.

Описание: Nanofabrication is the design and manufacture of devices with dimensions measured in nanometers. Nanofabrication technology is defining the forefront of technology. Nanofabrication is of interest to computer engineers because it opens the door to super-high-density microprocessors and memory chips. There are several ways that nanofabrication might be done. Nanofabrication is the technology that grew out of semiconductor microelectronics chip manufacturing. Today it is used in information storage, opto-electronics, sensors, micro-electro-mechanical devices, power semiconductors, pharmaceuticals, bio-medical applications, and, of course, in microelectronics. It is the driver technology in fields such as information technology, computers, the Internet, and bio-medical technology. Nanofabrication: Principles to Laboratory Practice develops a fundamental understanding of commonly used device fabrication processes and tools in an R&D environment. Examples from various areas of interest will be covered, such as the fabrication of photonic devices including photo detectors, waveguides, and optical coatings, which are not commonly found in other fabrication texts. Micro- and nanodevices have many benefits over their macroscale complements. Microfabrication techniques were established for solicitations in the semiconductor industry and are, consequently, not specific for biological or medical applications. However, both micro- and nanofabrication have offered a number of possibilities for the study of chemical, biological, and physical processes at the cellular and molecular scale, and for the design of synthetic devices capable of interacting with biological systems at these levels. This book is intended for the practicing scientist or engineer, with a focus on being able to transition the information from the book to the laboratory.

Описание: Upconversion is an optical process that includes the conversion of lower-energy photons into higher-energy photons. It has been widely studied since mid-1960s and extensively applied in optical devices. Over the past period, high-quality rare earth-doped upconversion nanoparticles have been successfully synthesized with the prompt development of nanotechnology and are becoming more prominent in biological sciences. The synthesis methods are typically phase-based processes, such as thermal decomposition, hydrothermal reaction, and ionic liquids-based synthesis. Rare earth doped upconversion nanoparticles, which can convert long wavelength near infrared radiation into short wavelength visible radiation via a non-linear optical process, are emerging as a new class of fluorescent biolables. They can overcome some of the limitations of conventional biolables including organic dyes and quantum dots. This book highlights recent advances in the synthesis, surface modification, and biological applications of rare earth doped upconversion nanoparticles. It serves as a powerful instrument that explores cutting-edge research knowledge on the topic of upconverting nanosystems, while simultaneously providing the necessary fundamental background for nonspecialist readers. The various aspects of upconverting materials are approached both from a theoretical point of view, particularly upconverting phenomenon, and a practical one. By presenting synthetic strategies, functionalisation, production of core shell structures and nanocomposites, this book supplies PhD students, researchers and practitioners, and scientists with a wealth of ideas they can apply to different fields of research. Predominantly, we highlight the advances in functionalisation strategies that enable the broad utility of upconversion nanocrystals for multimodal imaging, cancer therapy, volumetric displays and photonics.
