Engineering Professor Publishes Handbook on Nanoscience

At five volumes and approximately, 2,500 pages, University of California, Riverside Electrical Engineering Professor Alexander Balandin’s handbook on nanotechnology is a big book about the tiniest of things.

The volumes were broken down into fundamental aspects of the field. The first volume deals with quantum dots, nanowires and nano-assemblies. The second volume covers nanofabrication and Nanoscale characterization, while volume three deals with spintronics and nanoelectronics. The fourth volume covers nanophotonics and optoelectronics. The final volume examines nanodevices and circuits.
