Written by the leading experts worldwide it introduces the science of UNCD for both the R\u0026amp;D community and applications developers using UNCD in a diverse range of applications from macro to nanodevices, such as energy-saving ultra-low friction and wear coatings for mechanical pump seals and tools, high-performance MEMS\/NEMS-based systems (e.g. in telecommunications), the next generation of high-definition flat panel displays, in-vivo biomedical implants, and biosensors.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis work brings together the basic science of nanoscale diamond structures, with detailed information on ultra-nanodiamond synthesis, properties, and applications. The book offers discussion on UNCD in its two forms, as a powder and as a chemical vapor deposited film. Also discussed are the superior mechanical, tribological, transport, electrochemical, and electron emission properties of UNCD for a wide range of applications including MEMS\/ NEMS, surface acoustic wave (SAW) devices, electrochemical sensors, coatings for field emission arrays, photonic and RF switching, biosensors, and neural prostheses, etc. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUltrananocrystalline Diamond summarises the most recent developments in the nanodiamond field, and presents them in a way that will be useful to the R\u0026amp;D community in both academic and corporate sectors.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCoverage of both nanodiamond particles and films make this a valuable resource for both the nanotechnology community and the field of thin films \/ vacuum deposition.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWritten by the world’s leading experts in nanodiamond, this second edition builds on its predecessor’s reputation as the most up-to-date resource in the field.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Elsevier Science","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47107023405296,"sku":"9781437734669","price":215.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781437734669_p0.jpg?v=1763755075","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781437734669","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
