Isotope Low-Dimensional Structures - Elementary Excitations and Applications

This Briefs volume describes the properties and structure of elementary excitations in isotope low-dimensional structures. Without assuming prior knowledge of quantum physics, the present book provides the basic knowledge needed to understand the recent developments in the sub-disciplines of nanoscience isotopetronics, novel device concepts and materials for nanotechnology. It is the first and comprehensive interdisciplinary account of the newly developed scientific discipline isotopetronics.

List of contents

Elementary excitations of isotope-mixed crystals.- Methods of the preparation of low dimensional structures.- Electron excitations in low-dimensional structures.- Applications of low-dimensional structures.
