Thermometry at the Nanoscale: Techniques and Selected ApplicationsHardcover, 5 October 2015

There is a need for sensing and measuring temperature within nanoscopic spaces for many scientific investigations and technological developments. The book provides the fundamentals as well as thorough discussions of the state of the art of each technique, its possibilities and limits for technological applications and future trends. This includes a wide overview of the applications of nanothermometry in electronics, optoelectronics and micro/nanonofluidics, heat transport, imaging and nanomedicine. The book will appeal to researchers from materials science, physical chemistry, analytical chemistry and biological sciences working on the development of new materials, materials characterisation/analysis and their applications.
