The articles in this book summarize the work presented at the final workshop of the COST (European Cooperation in the Field of Scientific and Technical Research) Action on Molecular Materials and Functional Polymers for Advanced Devices, which was held in June 2000 in Patras, Greece. The collection gives an excellent overview of the state-of-the-art in this field and the progress made by the coordinated research projects. The results range over the synthesis, physical properties, and applications of molecular materials (nanotubes, fullerenes, phthalocyanines), inorganic and inorganic-organic hybrid materials, and functional polymers (electronic conduction, photoluminiscence, optical storage, photovoltaic devices).
The book comprises reviews on various topics of carbon nanotube research from specialists in the field, together with reports on on-going research. Both are intended to give a detailed picture of the remarkable properties of these one-dimensional nanostructures. Particular attention is paid to the synthesis, characterization, properties, and application of nanotubes. The book will be an indispensable introduction for the newcomers in the field as well as a valuable update for researchers in the field, for it contains the most recent developments.
Since the Nobel Prize for the discovery of graphene was presented in 2010, graphene has been frequently leveraged for different applications. Owing to the strategic importance of elastomer-based products in different segments, graphene and its derivatives are often added to different elastomers to improve their properties. Graphene-Rubber Nanocomposites: Fundamentals to Applications provides a comprehensive and innovative account of graphene-rubber composites. Features: Provides up-to-date information and research on graphene-rubber nanocomposites Presents a detailed account of the different niche applications ranging from sensors, flexible electronics to thermal, and EMI shielding materials...
From the beginning of chemistry as an exact (natural) science - almost 200 years ago - there was a more or less distinct differentiation between its various branches such as organic, inorganic, physical, analytical, or biochemistry. With the increasing insight into the connections and governing laws it soon became obvious, however, that such a clear separation could be regarded as more or less obsolete; within almost any field of chemical research one has to deal with most of the branches mentioned. Especially organic and inorganic chemistry are significant examples for this statement, overlapping considerably within the important field of organome tallic chemistry. This regime of chemistry ...
Proceedings of SPIE present the original research papers presented at SPIE conferences and other high-quality conferences in the broad-ranging fields of optics and photonics. These books provide prompt access to the latest innovations in research and technology in their respective fields. Proceedings of SPIE are among the most cited references in patent literature.

Electroactive materials are playing an ever increasing role in science and technology. At present the wide range of applications for these materials include electrodes and membranes for electrochemical energy conversion and storage, electroceramic devices and sensors, organic diodes, magnetic and optical devices, and photoresists. The book summarizes the results of the special research program ‘Electroactive Materials’ established by the Austrian Science Fund. Contributions deal with plastic solar cells (invited review); conjugated polymers and organosilanes; thin-film zinc/manganese dioxide electrodes; the anode/electrolyte interface in lithium ion batteries; a novel technique for manuf...
