Klein, kleiner, winzig: Diese hochaktuelle Sammlung von Beiträgen zeigt grundsätzliche und praktische Konsequenzen der Größenreduktion von Siliciumkristallen auf. Diskutiert werden optische, elektrische und thermische Eigenschafen von Si-Nanokristallen, die auf ihre geringe Dimension zurückzuführen sind. Außerdem erfahren Sie etwas über chemische Synthese und physikalische Charakterisierung, unter anderem über Ionenimplantation, kolloide Synthese und Abscheidung aus der Gasphase. Ein wesentlicher Teil der Buches widmet sich Anwendungen in der Mikroelektronik, Photonik und Nanobiotechnologie.
