Description
A research project at the Tokyo Institute of Technology - dedicated to fostering innovation in the field of nanomaterials - was selected as one of the 21st Century COE (Center of Excellence) programs. The achievements of this COE program, which builds on the strong tradition of materials science in the Institute, are summarized within this book.
Nanomaterials: Research Towards Applications is divided into four main parts:
Revolutionary Oxides
State-of-the-Art Polymers
Nanostructure Design for New Functions
Nanostructure Architecture for Engineering Applications
