Luminescence: The Instrumental Key to the Future of Nanotechnology

by Adam M. Gilmore (Editor)

Overview

The book covers a broad multidisciplinary arena including applications for energy conservation, materials performance enhancement, electronic circuitry, video displays, lighting, photovoltaics, quantum computing, memory, chemo- and biosensors, pharmaceuticals and medical diagnostics inter alia. It presents a comprehensive introductory overview of the photophysics, instrumentation and experimental methodology of nanomaterial luminescence. Invited experts highlight more specific advanced research areas that have either shown potential for, or have already realized, significant impact on the day-to-day aspects of modern life and the world economy.
