This book highlights the current understanding of materials in the context of new and continuously emerging techniques in the field of electron microscopy. The authors present applications of electron microscopic techniques in characterizing various well-known & new nanomaterials. The applications described include both inorganic nanomaterials as well as organic nanomaterials.
This book features reviews by leading experts on the methods and applications of modern forms of microscopy. The recent awards of Nobel Prizes awarded for super-resolution optical microscopy and cryo-electron microscopy have demonstrated the rich scientific opportunities for research in novel microscopies. Earlier Nobel Prizes for electron microscopy (the instrument itself and applications to biology), scanning probe microscopy and holography are a reminder of the central role of microscopy in modern science, from the study of nanostructures in materials science, physics and chemistry to structural biology. Separate chapters are devoted to confocal, fluorescent and related novel optical micr...

The book provides insight into the application of state-of-the-art technology for energy utilization and clean chemical synthesis. Features: Offers a wide overview of dehydrogenation catalytic chemistry catalyzed by transition metals and their compounds. Helps design novel and more benign and uncomplicated protocols for the s...
Recent Progress in Mesostructured Materials is a selection of oral and poster communications presented during the 5th International Mesostructured Materials Symposium (5th IMMS2006). Authorized by International Mesostructured Material Association (IMMA) and hosted by the Fudan University, China. The scope of this involved field covers both traditional inorganic mesostructured molecular sieves and mesostructured materials like organic polymers, metals, organic-inorganic nanocomposites, and ordered mesoporous carbons, the hot topics in chemistry, crystallization, structure, liquid crystalline, catalysis and materials science. This symposium provided a forum for the presentation of the most nov...
"This volume focuses on nanoalloys, which have lately been of increasing interest for a number of reasons. One of the major reasons is the fact that their chemical and physical properties can be tuned by varying the composition and atomic ordering, as well as the size of the clusters. Nanoalloy surface structures, compositions and degree of segregation or mixing are important in determining their properties." "Nanoalloys often display structures and properties which are distinct from those of the pure elemental clusters and they may also display properties which are distinct from the corresponding bulk alloys, due to finite size effects. In addition to experimental studies (synthesis, characterisation and property measurement), nanoalloys are attracting increasing attention from the point of view of theory and simulation." "Nanoalloys are also proving to be of interest in a number of scientific and technological applications, including: catalysis; fuel cells; magnetics; optics; and electronics. Work is presented on all aspects of nanoalloys: synthesis, characterisation, theory and simulation, property measurements and technological applications."--BOOK JACKET.

La ciudadanía está inmersa en un contexto de incertidumbre cuyo futuro está condicionado a su capacidad para resolver problemas de índole político, económico y social. Esas problemáticas tienen su reflejo en la cotidianidad de las aulas escolares y pueden abordarse mediante un tratamiento multidisciplinar, al que no es ajeno la didáctica de las ciencias sociales. Esta obra recopila dieciséis experiencias didácticas que han sido experimentadas en la educación básica (etapas de infantil, primaria y secundaria) y muestran la preocupación de un grupo de profesorado por contribuir a una ciudadanía activa, participativa y comprometida con los problemas sociales y ambientales que se r...
