This essential gives an overview of the physical principles underlying nanotechnology, which today make it possible to use microscopic effects technologically. Methods are presented which allow the production of nanostructures with highest precision. In the last chapter the author gives an overview of exciting technological applications, starting with the use of nanotechnology-based effects in church glass windows to solar cells and CCD chips.

Historians of Russia were relative latecomers to the field of environmental history. Yet, in the past decade, the exploration of Russian environmental history has burgeoned. Thinking Russia’s History Environmentally showcases collaboration amongst an international set of scholars who focus on the contribution that the study of Russian environments makes to the global environmental field. Through discerning analysis of natural resources, the environment as a factor
Dr. Christian Schneider studierte Physik an der TU Kaiserslautern und promovierte dort 2013 in der Gruppe von Prof. Dr. Martin Aeschlimann über laserinduzierte plasmonische Anregungen von Nanostrukturen. Heute arbeitet er im Bereich der Wissenschaftskommunikation in der Physik an der Universität Mainz.
