Description for Chemistry in Motion: Reaction-Diffusion Systems for Micro- and Nanotechnology
Hardcover. Change and motion define and constantly reshape the world around us, on scales from the molecular to the global. In particular, the subtle interplay between chemical reactions and molecular transport gives rise to an astounding richness of natural phenomena, and often manifests itself in the emergence of intricate spatial or temporal patterns. Num Pages: 302 pages, colour illustrations. BIC Classification: PBW; PH; PNR; PS; TD; TG. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 239 x 163 x 20. Weight in Grams: 684.
Change and motion define and constantly reshape the world around us, on scales from the molecular to the global. In particular, the subtle interplay between chemical reactions and molecular transport gives rise to an astounding richness of natural phenomena, and often manifests itself in the emergence of intricate spatial or temporal patterns. The underlying theme of this book is that by “setting chemistry in motion” in a proper way, it is not only possible to discover a variety of new phenomena, in which chemical reactions are coupled with diffusion, but also to build micro-/nanoarchitectures and systems of practical importance. Although ... Read more

Reviews for Chemistry in Motion: Reaction-Diffusion Systems for Micro- and Nanotechnology
"In summary, this text can be viewed as a first stepping stone into the reaction-diffusion field. It is a quick, informative survey of what types of syntheses are possible in reaction-diffusion systems; it provides the necessary framework to begin an in-depth project in the field; and most importantly, it is an enjoyable read." (Angewandte Chemie, 2010) ... Read more
