Synopsis

Nanomaterials via Single-Source Precursors: Synthesis, Processing and Applications presents recent results and overviews of synthesis, processing, characterization and applications of advanced materials for energy, electronics, biomedicine, sensors and aerospace. A variety of processing methods (vapor, liquid and solid-state) are covered, along with materials, including metals, oxides, semiconductor, sulfides, selenides, nitrides, and carbon-based materials. Production of quantum dots, nanoparticles, thin films and composites are described by a collection of international experts. Given the ability to customize the phase, morphology, and properties of target materials, this "rational approach" to synthesis and processing is a disruptive technology for electronic, energy, structural and biomedical (nano)materials and devices.

The use of single-source chemical precursors for materials processing technology allows for intimate elemental mixing and hence production of complex materials at temperatures well below traditional physical methods and those involving direct combination of elements. The use of lower temperatures enables thin-film deposition on lightweight polymer substrates and reduces damage to complex devices structures such as used in power, electronics and sensors.

A propos du livre

À propos des auteurs

Prof. Allen Apblett is professor of chemistry at Oklahoma State University. He is a Fellow of the American Chemical Society, the American Ceramic Society, and the National Academy of Inventors. He is also an Izaac Walton Killam Fellow. Among the awards that he has received are: 2018 Rankin Award, 2014 Oklahoma Chemist of the Year, Project Kaleidoscope's Faculty for the 21st Century selectee, Oklahoma State University Faculty Entrepreneur of the Year, and the Governor General of Canada's Medal. Prof. Apblett's research is the application of inorganic materials chemistry to the multitude of problems that are faced by industry today: improved methods of extracting minerals and recycling waste materials, the direct "one-pot" conversion of minerals to useful commodity chemicals and polymers, new catalytic processes, pollution prevention and remediation and novel processing techniques and products, including utilization of single-source precursors. Allen has over 150 refereed publications, eight patents and one edited book.

Professor Andrew R. Barron is the Charles W. Duncan, Jr. - Welch Chair of Chemistry and Professor of Materials Science at Rice University; he is also Sêr Cymru Chair of Low Carbon Energy and Environment at Swansea University. Prof. Barron's research is currently aimed at the development of rational molecular design for materials synthesis, emphasizing the leap from synthesis to application of nano-based materials. He was educated at Imperial College (London) and has held posts at the University Texas at Austin and Harvard. Professor Barron is the author of over 400 publications, 20 Patents, 5 books, and is the recipient of numerous awards including: the Hümboldt Senior Scientist Research Award, the Corday Morgan Medal, the Meldola Medal, and the first Welch Foundation Norman Hackerman Award. He is a Fellow of the Royal Society of Chemistry; in 2009 he was appointed as the Prince of Wales Visiting Innovator. In 2011 he won the Houston Technology Center's Lifetime Achievement Award in Nanotechnology and the World Technology Award for Materials.

Aloysius F. Hepp is Chief Technologist at Nanotech Innovations and an independent consultant based in Cleveland, Ohio. He earned a PhD in Inorganic Photochemistry in 1983 from MIT and retired in December 2016 from the Photovoltaic & Electrochemical Systems Branch of the NASA Glenn Research Center (Cleveland). He was a visiting fellow at Harvard University from 1992-3. He was awarded the NASA Exceptional Achievement medal in 1997. He has served as an adjunct faculty member at the University of Albany and Cleveland State University. Dr. Hepp has co-authored nearly 200 publications (including six patents) focused on processing of thin film and nanomaterials for I-III-VI solar cells, Li-ion batteries, integrated power devices and flight experiments, and precursors and spray pyrolysis deposition of sulfides and carbon nanotubes. He has co-edited twelve books on advanced materials processing, energy conversion and electronics, biomimicry, and aerospace technologies. He is Editor-in-Chief Emeritus of Materials Science in Semiconductor Processing (MSSP) and is currently the chair of the International Advisory Board of MSSP, as well as serving on the Editorial Advisory Boards of Mater. Sci. and Engin. B and Heliyon. He has recently been appointed as Series Editor for the Vacuum and Thin-Film Deposition Technologies series and the Aerospace Fundamentals, Applications, and Exploration series.
