Description
Newagepublishers Principles And Applications Of Nanomems Physics by De Los Santos
This book presents the first unified exposition of the physical principles at the heart of Nano MEMS-based devices and applications. In particular, after beginning with a comprehensive presentation of the fundamentals and limitations of nanotechnology and MEMS fabrication techniques, the book addresses the physics germane to this dimensional regime, namely, quantum wave-particle phenomena, including, the manifestation of charge discreteness, quantized electrostatic actuation and the Casimir effect and quantum wave phenomena, including, quantized electrical conductance, quantum interference, Luttinger liquids, quantum entanglement, superconductivity and cavity quantum electrodynamics. Then, the book, addresses potential building blocks for Nano MEMS applications, including, nano electromechanical quantum circuits and systems such as charge detectors, the which-path electron interferometer and the Casimir oscillator, as well as a number of quantum computing implementation paradigms. Finally, Nano MEMS applications in photonics are addressed, including nanophotonic light sources and plasmonic devices.This special low-priced edition is for sale in India, Bangladesh, Nepal, Pakistan and Sri Lanka only.
