Nanotechnology is a rapidly growing field based on interdisciplinary science. It is therefore not surprising that there is an interest for nanotechnology amongst physicists, chemists, engineers and biologists. Many Universities all over the world are interested in introducing Nanotechnology at undergraduate and postgraduate levels. This book will give an introduction to Nanotechnology, methods of making nanomaterials (physical, chemical, biological and hybrid). Various analysis techniques (microscopies and spectroscopies) with reference to nanomaterials will be discussed. Structure, thermal, optical, magnetic, transport etc properties of the nanomaterials will be elaborated with appropriate examples. At the end, applications of Nanotechnology in electronics, optoelectronics, cosmetics, textile medicine etc will be discussed. In order to understand nanotechnology some basic understanding about quantum mechanics and solid state physics (chemistry) is essential.
