Low–Dimensional Materials and Devices – Electronic, Photonic and Energy Applications

Comprehensive summary of cutting-edge low-dimensional materials, their many functional applications, and the latest research findings in the field Low-Dimensional Materials and Devices provides a systematic summary of low-dimensional materials and devices such as carbon nanotubes, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), and boron nitride, as well as research achievements in their design, synthesis, and fabrication over the past two decades. The book describes in detail how to address various challenges associated with devices based on low-dimensional materials, such as orientation, diameter, and architecture control, and covers the many applications of low-dimensional materials and devices in electronics, energy, and photonics, such as flat panel displays, 2D semiconductors, fuel cells and Li-S batteries, and nanoelectronic devices. Written by a highly qualified and awarded academic, Low-Dimensional Materials and Devices explores sample topics includin Controlled growth and patterning of multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) arrays, covering vertical alignment growth, patterning technologies, and surface modificationHeteroatom-doped graphene as a metal-free electrocatalyst, covering doping heteroatoms into graphene and heteroatom-doped graphene as an electrocatalyst for oxygen reduction reactionsControlled synthesis of metal heterostructures and their catalytic properties, covering basic principles of nucleation, growth of metal heterostructures, and synthesis of metal nanocrystals and nanostructuresFabrication of 2D semiconducting materials, covering their preparation, transfer, and modulation Providing highly in-depth coverage of the state of the art in the field, Low-Dimensional Materials and Devices is an essential reference for materials scientists, electronics engineers, and solid state, physical, and catalytic chemists involved in related research projects.
