Core Concepts in Supramolecular Chemistry and Nanochemistry: From Supramolecules to Nanotechnology is a textbook by Jonathan W. Steed, intended for researchers and students who want to deepen their understanding of supramolecular chemistry and nanochemistry. The book provides a clear introduction to the fundamental theories and applications of these rapidly developing fields.
Contents
This text discusses in depth the basic principles of supramolecular chemistry and nanochemistry and connects them with current developments in nanotechnology and crystal engineering. From a broad perspective, it covers the chemistry of non-covalent interactions and how these lead to new materials and technologies.
The book is pragmatically structured, starting with the very first principles, and includes clear diagrams and references to relevant research. This makes it a compact, reliable source for study and research in chemistry.
