Size effects in metals, semiconductors and inorganic compounds : special topic volume with invited peer reviewed papers only /

The fields of nanoscience and nanotechnology are now growing very rapidly. The properties of nanostructures are different to those of the bulk material, due to the high surface area to volume ratio and possible appearance of quantum effects at the nanoscale. The study of size and shape effects upon...
