The Nanotechnology Multimedia Encyclopedic Courses

CD-ROM
presentation

Exploring Nanotechnology, 3rd volume of the Nanopolis™ encyclopedia series, was conceived to provide an understanding of nanotechnology and its implications.
It contains:

intuitive explanations of nanotechnology concepts, technological processes and applications
summary charts showing research groups and companies involved in each nanotechnology subfield
references necessary for further insight on each topic.

The "Exploring Nanotechnology" encyclopedia is destined for a worldwide audience of:
Industrialists, technology analysts and decision makers looking for an insight into tomorrow;
Scientists trying to cope with the inherent interdisciplinarity of a field;
Students and the general public looking for a highly intuitive presentation of nanotechnology.
Teachers/professors involved in bio-nanotechnology education.

Exploring Nanotechnology CD-ROM represents the fruition of the cooperation between more than 200 scientific groups active in the field, including snapshots of real-life research from the most active world-wide laboratories and institutes.

The scientific content of the Nanopolis encyclopedias is continually updated through its online co-authoring editorial system in order to keep you connected to the most recent and important accomplishments in nanotechnology. The updates benefit of significant discounts.

Reviewers' Impressions

"The first impression of the presentation of electron beam lithography is quite impressive. The language used to explain the fundamentals of electron beam lithography is easy to understand. The graphics are neat and clear. They explain the concepts very well. The age-old cliché that a picture is worth a thousand words is true here."

"Wow, looks great now! There have been great improvements since the first draft. I am very pleased with the product!" (About the "Electrospinning" chapter of the encyclopedia).

“In fact, the whole […] design is very attractive and informative. The learning process is interactive.
Personally, I find it appropriate of using this interactive way for teaching materials science subjects as well as treat base information for researchers and engineers, who do not have any knowledge in nano-structural materials.”

Prof. Alan Kin-tak Lau, Ph.D.
