Carbon nanotubes represent one of the most exciting research areas in modern science. These molecular-scale carbon tubes are the stiffest and strongest fibres known, with remarkable electronic properties, and potential applications in a wide range of fields. Carbon Nanotube Science is the most concise, accessible book for the field, presenting the basic knowledge that graduates and researchers need to know. Based on the successful Carbon Nanotubes and Related Structures, this new book focuses solely on carbon nanotubes, covering the major advances made in recent years in this rapidly developing field. Chapters focus on electronic properties, chemical and bimolecular functionalisation, nanotube composites and nanotube-based probes and sensors. The book begins with a comprehensive discussion of synthesis, purification and processing methods. With its full coverage of the state-of-the-art in this active research field, this book will appeal to researchers in a broad range of disciplines, including nanotechnology, engineering, materials science and physics.

Editorial Reviews
Review
"You will hardly find a more comprehensive reference on the science of carbon nanotubes. Written by Peter Harris, 12 individual chapters incorporate the most recent technological advances and research developments on an exceptionally timely topic... Personally, I would recommend this book to chemical physicists and physical chemists, and to those broadly interested in nanoscience."
Dirk Guldi, Chemistry World
"With its extensive coverage of nanotube synthesis, structure, properties and applications, this book will appeal to students and researchers in engineering and sciences...The previous edition of the book has been cited more than 500 times, according to ISI, and there is no doubt that the new edition will also be widely used and frequently cited."

5.0 out of 5 stars
Zig-zag ride on the buckytube,
This review is from: Carbon Nanotubes and Related Structures: New Materials for the Twenty-first Century (Hardcover)
The new book by Peter Harris reviews the properties of carbon nanotubes and clarifies their promise as revolutionary new materials for the XXI century. Harris has written a most readable and useful book, which contains a wealth of up-to-date information for specialists and non-specialists. The book highlights the main challenges that have to be overcome if carbon-based nanotube technology is to fulfil the exciting, indeed revolutionary, promise that the already-known properties forecast........Times Higher Educational Supplement

Good Book,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Carbon Nanotube Science: Synthesis, Properties and Applications (Paperback)
This is a very good and recent review of carbon nanotube technology. It is not overly technical but is advanced enough to get good information out of, and contains a lot of references for someone interested. I would say it is quite readable, and does not get too boring at most points. I read most of the book, too, so that goes for almost all the book.
