Cutting-edge coverage of carbon nanoscale science This definitive volume offers an in-depth look at the unique properties and potential applications of carbon nanomaterials (CNM). Beginning with a description of various CNM types, Carbon Nanoforms and Applications addresses the need to develop a new classification of carbon. After discussing the fundamental physics, the book covers techniques for CNM synthesis and characterization. This authoritative resource then provides comprehensive information on the physico-chemical and biosystems applications of CNMs. Carbon Nanoforms and Applications covers: Theoretical aspects of CNM Synthesis and characterization of CNM Electron field emission Fuel cells Electric double-layer capacitors Hydrogen storage Lithium-ion batteries Carbon solar cells Microwave absorption Carbon nanosensors Biosystems Cancer treatment Nano-enabled drug delivery Antimicrobial properties Tissue fabrication Neurogenesis Food and cosmetics
