The Nile on eBay FREE SHIPPING UK WIDE Polymer Electronics by Mark Geoghegan, Georges Hadziioannou Polymer electronics lies behind many important new developments in technology, such as the flexible electronic display (e-ink) and modern transistor technology. This book presents a thorough discussion of the physics and chemistry behind this exciting field, appealing to all physical scientists with an interest in polymer electronics. FORMAT Hardcover LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description Polymer electronics is the science behind many important new developments in technology, such as the flexible electronic display (e-ink) and many new developments in transistor technology. Solar cells, light-emitting diodes, and transistors are all areas where plastic electronics is likely to, or is already having, a serious impact on our daily lives. With polymer transistors and light-emitting diodes now being commercialised, there is a clear need for a pedagogictext that discusses the subject in a clear and concise fashion suitable for senior undergraduate and graduate students. The content builds on what has been learnt in an elementary (core) course in solidstate physics and electronic behaviour, but care has been taken to ensure that important aspects such as the synthesis of these polymers are not overlooked. The chemistry is treated in a manner appropriate to students of physics. Polymer Electronics presents a thorough discussion of the physics and chemistry behind this new and important area of science, appealing to all physical scientists with an interest in the field. Author Biography After postdoctoral positions at CEA Saclay, and the universities of Freiburg and Bayreuth, Mark Geoghegan was appointed Lecturer in Physics at Sheffield University in 2000, quickly becoming Senior Lecturer and subsequently Professor there. He is the Director of Nanofolio, a Masters education portfolio, in conjunction with the University of Leeds. His research covers polymers at surfaces, semiconducting polymers, biopolymers, and polymer nanotechnology. Highlightsinclude the development of a fully reversible switchable adhesive and the demonstration of directed single molecule motion.Georges Hadziioannou has been Professor of Chemistry at the University of Bordeaux 1 since 2009. He was Professor at the University Louis-Pasteur (ULP) Strasbourg (France), Director of the European Engineering School of Chemistry, Polymers and Materials (ECPM) of ULP, and Founder and Director of the 'Laboratoire d'Ingéniérie des Polymères pour les Hautes Technologies' until January 2009. His research area covers semi-conducting polymers, nanostructured polymer materials,polymer materials for the storage and transfer of information, plastic electronics - molecular electronics and systems thereof. In 2007, he received the Süe Award from the French Chemistry Association (SFC) and in 2008, hewas appointed Senior Member of the 'Institut Universitaire de France' and to the chair of 'Physical chemistry of Polymers'.

Skabara, Neil J. Findlay, Angewandte Chemie (International Edition) "Polymer Electronics provides an excellent introduction and overview of all the key aspects of this new and important area of electronics. It is pitched at a level which provides sufficient detail for those who are likley to find themselves working on the subject, but it is also at a level where those with more general interest will also find the book not overly complex and off-putting.The book presents a thorough introductory discussion of both the physics and chemistry of Polymer Electronics and should appeal to all those with an interest in this exciting new field." --Circuit World Feature First book at introductory level in an important and developing area Class-tested, based on existing lecture course Covers technology from pure science to market applications Interdisciplinary, covering chemistry and engineering as well as physics Solutions manual for end-of-chapter exercises available to lecturers Details ISBN 0199533822 Author Georges Hadziioannou Pages 272 Year 2013 ISBN-10 0199533822 ISBN-13 9780199533824 Format Hardcover Short Title POLYMER ELECTRONICS Language English Media Book Affiliation Univ. of Sheffield, UK Series Oxford Master Series in Physics Series Number 22 Place of Publication Oxford Country of Publication United Kingdom DEWEY 621.381 UK Release Date 2013-04-04 NZ Release Date 2013-04-04 Publisher Oxford University Press Publication Date 2013-04-04 Imprint Oxford University Press Alternative 9780199533831 Illustrations 123 b/w line and halftone illustrations Audience Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly AU Release Date 2013-04-10 We've got this At The Nile, if you're looking for it, we've got it.
