Physical Properties of Carbon Nanotubes Physical Properties of Carbon Nanotubes By R. Saito, G. Dresselhaus, M. S. Dresselhaus Publisher: World Scientific Publishing Company Number Of Pages: 259 Publication Date: 1998-09-15 ISBN-10 / ASIN: 1860940935 ISBN-13 / EAN: 9781860940934 Binding: Hardcover An introductory textbook for graduate students & researchers from various fields of science who wish to learn about carbon nanotubes. The field is still at an early stage, & progress continues at a rapid rate. Summary: Nice work, but advanced knowledge is required. Rating: 4 The book is very well organized but it requires a previous background on the subject. However, there are other book like "Atomic and Electronic structure of Solids" by E. Kaxiras and "Electronic Structure of Solids, The physics of the chemical bond" by Harrison that may provide all required knowledge! What I disliked most is that are issues left open. For example, the theory about the conductivity of carbon and CNTs is very limited. I would certainly recommend this book to anyone interested in the CNT structures. Summary: Physical Properties of Carbon Nanotubes Rating: 5 This book of renowned scholars from MIT and from the University of Electro-Communications in Tokyo provides a systematic description of the structure of carbon nanotubes and of their physical nature. The volume starts from background information on the structure and properties of graphite and related carbon materials. Based on the geometric structure of carbon nanotubes, the electronic properties and phonon dispersion relations are explained on simple physical models. The book starts from the first principles and through the physical models explains and interprets numerous experiments. After twobackground chapters the book continues with nine specialized topics. The geometrical structure of nanotubes is described and linked to their electronic features. A comprehensive article deals with synthesis of carbon nanotubes. The following chapter concentrates on quantization produced by confinement of electrons in one-dimensional nanotubes. Physical connections of carbon nanotubes are then discussed - their geometry and electrical conductance. Transport properties of nanotubes are analyzed in the next chapter, using quantum transport in a one-dimensional wire. Phonon modes of nanotubes follow and are treated by the zone-folding technique. Raman spectra of nanotubes are then surveyed. The volume ends with a chapter on elastic properties of nanotubes. The book is a well organized systematic treatise that should be enjoyed by any researcher in the field as well as by graduate students. Theories and experiments are truly organically linked in the text and this is its unique feature. The volume has 259+xii pages, lists 238 references, and also includes some useful Fortran computer codes for geometry generations. The book is published by Imperial College Press and distributed by World Scientific Publ. Co. ISBN: 1-86094-093-5 Summary: Not for the beginner Rating: 3 This book gives a detailed treatment of the theory behind the physical properties of carbon nanotubes, and is written by some of the leading scientists in the field. However it cannot be recommended as an introduction to the subject of carbon nanotubes, as much of the mathematics will be beyond those without specialist knowledge of solid state physics. Also the illustrations are very poor quality. In its favour, the book is quite cheap. Summary: A must for all who consider doing research in the field. Rating: 5 This is a very good introductory book for all those who are thinking of doing research in the (constantly evolving) field of carbon nanotubes. It is a very didactic book and contains essential information which are very useful. Since it was written in an early stage of the research on carbon nanotubes, some of its material may look outdated, but is simply basic information over which the present knowledge on carbon nanotubes was built. I have used the information from the book heavily in my PhD. thesis, on which I am currently working. The book begins from the very basics: a review of the types of carbon bonds and hybridizations. Being a theorist, one of my favorite chapters is the one on the early tight-binding calculations for the electronic structure of carbon nanotubes. These calculations are immensely useful for understanding the electronic structure of carbon nanotubes. It also presents a review of the elastic properties of carbon nanotubes and of the phonon properties, as well as the group theory involved in understanding carbon nanotubes' properties. However, this field could not have progressed without the huge mass of experimental work done in the area. Therefore, the book contains lots of material on the experimental aspects of research in the area, like synthesis of carbon nanotubes, Raman scattering (a whole chapter is devoted to the subject) and transport experiments. This probably is the part in which the material is most outdated, since new experimental techniques and new experiments are always being devised and performed. However, the experiments described in the book provide a good starting point for having a general idea of what has been going on in the experimental area. Many topics, like Coulomb blockade, Luttinger liquid behavior and mechanical effects on the electronic structure are lacking since only two years since the launching of the book were enough to allow these topics to be discovered or become of interest in research. Nevertheless, the books remains (and perhaps will always be) basic reference and an almost mandatory citation in articles published on the subject in the most important scientific research magazines in the world. Summary: ghaffar Rating: 5 I am not sure wethere or not that I have come this way successivelly,since I want to buy this excellent book since I have interested to this book because of my project.since I am graduate student of physics in IRAN and we have not any bankcard system.If I wrong please guide me.thank very much. 下载： http://rapidshare.com/files/116520978/1860940934.rar |
