Controlled Nanoscale Motion (eBook, PDF)

Nobel Symposium 131
Redaktion: Linke, Heiner; Mansson, Alf

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This volume provides an introduction to the state-of-the-art of controlled nanoscale motion in biological and artificial systems. Coverage includes the control and function of protein motors, the physics of non-equilibrium Brownian motion, and the physics and fabrication of synthetic molecular motors. The chapters in this book are based on selected contributions on the 2005 Nobel Symposium on Controlled Nanoscale Motion.
