Book Description
This book is an overview of the strategies to generate high-quality films of one-dimensional semiconductor nanostructures on flexible substrates (e.g., plastics) and the use of them as building blocks to fabricating flexible devices (including electronics, optoelectronics, sensors, power systems). In addition to engineering aspects, the physics and chemistry behind the fabrication and device operation will also be discussed as well. Internationally recognized scientists from academia, national laboratories, and industries, who are the leading researchers in the emerging areas, are contributing exceptional chapters according to their cutting-edge research results and expertise. This book will be an on-time addition to the literature in nanoscience and engineering. It will be suitable for graduate students and researchers as a useful reference to stimulate their research interest as well as facilitate their research in nanoscience and engineering.
Considers the physics and chemistry behind fabrication and device operation
Discusses applications to electronics, optoelectronics, sensors and power systems
Examines existing technologies and investigates emerging trends
Editorial Reviews
Review
Mechanically flexible and stretchable semiconductor systems enabled by new developments in nanomaterials are set to enable a new generation of high-performance, versatile and low-cost electronics and energy applications.
