Nanomaterials are mainly categorized into three groups: fundamental building blocks; dispersions or composites of building blocks in randomly ordered matrices; and spatially resolved, ordered nanostructures. Today, nanomaterials that offer some unique optical properties may find application as pure materials or may be integrated into larger structures. This book presents examples of both pure and composite materials that include organic–inorganic nanocomposites and quantum dots embedded into different matrices for various applications in modern nanotechnology.

This monograph is unique compared with its equivalents in the market in respect of its scope as it contains introductory sections to most of the important topics on nanomaterials optics. This feature broadens its readership from engineers and researchers, working in the field of materials science and optics, to lecturers, graduate students, and beginners who want to deepen their knowledge in nanomaterials optics. In this second edition, the text of all chapters is updated with the most recent developments in the field; introductory paragraphs have been added in Chapters 2 and 4; new sections on commonly used physical constants and unit conversions in optics have been added in the Appendix; and the bibliography has been updated with 40 new references and many new editions of books have also been referenced.

Zielgruppe

The main audience of the book includes lecturers, engineers, and researchers working in the field of materials science and optics as well as graduate students and beginners who want to deepen their knowledge in the nanomaterials optics.
