The electrochemical nanofabrication technique has not received the attention it deserves when compared to conventional nanofabrication methods. The fabrication technique offers immense benefits for manufacture of nanomaterials. Other nanofabrication techniques, including sol-gel, self-assembly and CVD have been studied elaborately.
Research and Markets has added a new book "Electrochemical Nanofabrication: Principles and Applications" to its portfolio. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the electrochemical nanofabrication field and focuses on materials such as metallic, polymeric and oxides in intricate interfacial architectures and in various types of combinations.
Governments, industries and research institutes have infused billions of venture capital into nanotechnology research. This book summarizes the various types of electrochemical nanofabrication methods and describes their potential in optoelectronics, sensors, batteries and other applications. It covers key topics including electrochemical synthesis of nanomaterials in ionic liquids, electrochemical replication of block copolymer nanostructures that are self-assembled, nanomaterials in electrochemical devices, and nanomaterials electrochemical synthesis in ionic liquids. With regard to lithium-ion batteries, the book deals with hierarchically nanostructured electrode materials and nanostructured TiO2 materials.
The book also contains contributions by researchers and scientists about the prospects for different electrochemical nanofabrication methods.
The new book is targeted at researchers and scientists in the fields of nanotechnology, materials science, physics and chemistry. It is useful for people already in the field of nanofabrication as well as those who intend to enter the field.
