Download or read book Electronic Properties of Nanoclusters in Amorphous Materials written by Mikio Fukuhara and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2019-09-17 with total page 157 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nanometre-sized clusters (nanoclusters) that make up amorphous materials (metallic alloys and organic and inorganic compounds) cast new light on the science and technology of this century. However, because various electronic characteristics of nanoclusters have been discovered during the past decade, there have been few publications concerned with the electronic properties of nanoclusters. This book presents a detailed study of these properties, beginning with their basic characteristics (from alloy synthesis to the electronic rule for the formation of amorphous alloys) to more technical aspects (such as new single electron transistors, superior ballistic conduction).
