Filling a gap in the literature, this timely publication is the first to comprehensively cover the emerging and rapidly growing field of the synthesis of nanoparticles using microwaves. Divided into the three parts of fundamentals, methods and applications, the handbook presents such hot topics as microwave theory, scale-up, microwave plasma synthesis, characterization and much more. With its excellent and experienced editor team, this book is of high interest to those working in industry due to the number of possible applications in semiconductors,electronics, catalysis, and sensors, to name but a few examples.
