"Crystallization and growth of colloidal nanocrystals provides a current understanding of the mechanisms related to nucleation and growth for use in controlling nanocrystal morphology and physical-chemical properties."

"Nanokristal semikonduktor inorganik banyak menarik perhatian karena memiliki sifat-sifat baru yang menarik dan berpotensi untuk diaplikasikan pada berbagai kegunaan seperti solar cell, light-emitting device, photodetector, transistor, dll. Munculnya sifat-sifat menarik tersebut disebabkan oleh ukuran nanokristal yang sangat kecil (2-20 nm) sehingga terjadi fenomena quantum confinement pada struktur energi elektronik material tersebut. Fenomena quantum ini menyebabkan banyak sifat dari nanokristal bergantung terhadap ukurannya, di antaranya pada sifat elektronik dan sifat optiknya. Sebagai contoh, Gambar 1 menunjukkan bahwa spektrum warna yang diemisikan berubah seiring dengan berubahnya ukuran nanokristal tersebut. Hal tersebut disebabkan oleh karena melebarnya Energy bandgap nanokristal di saat ukuran nanokristal mengecil. Perubahan bandgap ini juga berpengaruh secara signifikan juga terhadap sifat-sifat transfer elektroniknya."

"This book reviews the application of semiconductor nanocrystals also known as colloidal quantum dots (QDs) to LED lighting for indoors and outdoors as well as LED backlighting in displays, summarizing the color science of QDs for lighting and displays and presenting recent developments in QD-integrated LEDs and display research. By employing QDs in color-conversion LEDs, it is possible to simultaneously accomplish successful color rendition of the illuminated objects and a good spectral overlap between the emission spectrum of the light source and the sensitivity of the human eye at a warm white color temperature-something that is fundamentally challenging to achieve with conventional sources, such as incandescent and fluorescent lamps, and phosphor-based LEDs."

"Perkembangan terkini dari semen ionomer kaca (SIK) telah menjadikannya sebagai sebuah bahan restorasi gigi yang sangat baik, namun sifat mekaniknya masih perlu ditingkatkan. Sifat mekanik dari semen ionomer kaca dapat ditingkatkan melalui inkorpoasi kristal nano fluorhidroksiapatit, salah satu mineral penyusun jaringan keras gigi sehingga memiliki biokompatibilitas yang baik. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mensintesis kristal nano fluorhidroksiapatit dengan tingkat fluoridasi yang berbeda melalui metode yang cepat dan efisien serta mengevaluasi pengaruh penambahan kristal nano fluorhidroksiapatit terhadap kekerasan mikro semen ionomer kaca yang telah dimodifikasi melalui inkorporasi kristal nano fluorhidroksiapatit. Kristal nano fluorhidroksiapatit dengan tingkat fluoridasi 0 hingga ~95% disintesis melalui metode presipitasi yang dibantu iradiasi gelombang mikro. Fase kristal, gugus fungsi, morfologi permukaan, dan tingkat fluoridasi dari bubuk yang telah disintesis ditentukan melalui difraksi sinar-X (XRD), spektroskopi inframerah transformasi Fourier (FTIR), mikroskop pemindai elektron (SEM), dan energy dispersive x-ray spectrometer (EDX) secara berturut-turut. Kemudian, bubuk fluorhidroksiapatit yang telah disintesis ditambahkan ke dalam semen ionomer kaca komersial (Fuji IX, GC Gold Label) dengan jumlah sebanyak 5 wt%, 7,5 wt%, dan 10 wt%. Semen ionomer kaca yang tidak mengalami penambahan fluorhidroksiapatit digunakan sebagai kelompok kontrol. Kekerasan mikro dari semen yang telah dikondisikan selama 24 jam di dalam air distilasi bersuhu 37 °C dievaluasi dengan penguji kekerasan mikro Vickers. Metode karakterisasi menunjukkan bahwa bubuk yang telah disintesis merupakan fluorhidroksiapatit berukuran nano dengan tingkat fluoridasi yang berbeda. Kekerasan mikro dari semen yang dimodifikasi menunjukkan nilai yang lebih tinggi (54-100 HV) dibanding kelompok kontrol (48,94 HV). Hasil menunjukkan bahwa penambahan fluorhidroksiapatit dengan tingkat fluoridasi yang berbeda pada penambahan sebanyak persentase massa yang sama tidak menghasilkan perbedaan signifikan pada kekerasan mikro semen yang dimodifikasi. Selain itu, kekerasan mikro dari semen yang dimodifikasi akan meningkat dengan penambahan fluorhidroksiapatit maksimum sebanyak 7,5 wt% dan kemudian berkurang dengan penambahan lebih lanjut.

Recent developments of glass ionomer cement (GIC) have made it to become an excellent dental restorative material, nevertheless, its mechanical properties still need to be improved. The mechanical strength of glass ionomer cement could be enhanced through the incorporation of fluorhydroxyapatite nanocrystal, one of the minerals that compose dental hard tissues and therefore have great biocompatibility. This study aims to synthesize fluorhydroxyapatite with different degrees of fluoridation through a fast and efficient method and to evaluate the effect of fluorhydroxyapatite nanocrystals addition to the microhardness of glass ionomer cement modified by the incorporation of fluorhydroxyapatite nanocrystals. Fluorhydroxyapatite nanocrystals with 0 to ~95% fluoridation degrees were synthesized through a microwave-assisted precipitation method. The crystal phase, functional groups, surface morphology, and fluoridation degrees of the synthesized powder were determined through X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) Spectroscopy, Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), and Energy Dispersive X-ray (EDX) Spectroscopy, respectively. Thereafter, synthesized fluorhydroxyapatite powder was added to commercial glass ionomer cement (Fuji IX, GC Gold Label) with an amount of 5 wt%, 7.5 wt%, and 10 wt%. The glass ionomer cement which did not undergo fluorhydroxyapatite addition was used as the control group. The microhardness of the cement which has been conditioned for 24 hours in distilled water at 37 °C were evaluated with Vickers Microhardness Tester. Characterization methods revealed that the synthesized powder was nano-sized fluorhydroxyapatite with different degrees of fluoridation. The microhardness of the modified cement exhibited higher values (54-100 HV) compared to the control group (48.94 HV). The results showed that the difference in fluoridation degrees of fluorhydroxyapatite at the addition of the same mass percentage did not produce a significant difference in the microhardness among the modified cement. On the other hand, the microhardness of the modified cement would increase with the addition of fluorhydroxyapatite maximum at 7.5 wt% addition, and then decreases with further addition."

"The present work covers the essential technologies for creating sub 25 nm features lithographically, depositing layers with nanometer control, and etching patterns and structures at the nanoscale. A distinguishing feature of this book is a focus not on extension of microelectronics fabrication, but rather on techniques applicable for building NEMS, biosensors, nanomaterials, photonic crystals, and other novel devices and structures that will revolutionize society in the coming years."

"This book gives a broad and coherent overview of the complete production and value chain from nanoparticle formation to integration into products and devices. The book offers a deep insight into the fabrication, characterization and application of nanoparticles from the gasphase.

In the second section, the reader is introduced to the structure and dynamics that lead to functional nanoscale systems and materials. The third section, “Properties and Applications”, provides a detailed discussion of the optical, electronic, magnetic and chemical characteristics of nanostructures and demonstrates how these can be used in tailored materials and devices."

"This is the third volume in a series of books on selected topics in Nanoscale Science and Technology based on lectures given at the well-known Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare (INFN) schools of the same name. A tutorial lecture by Motta et al. presents the analysis of the Poly(3-hexylthiophene) self assembly on carbon nanotubes and discusses how the interaction between the two materials forms a new hybrid nanostructure, with potential application to future solar cells technology.

"Sebuah penelitian sistematis telah dilakukan untuk mengetahui penyebab utama rendahnya tingkat kristalinitas nanopartikel titania (TiO2) di dalam nanokomposit TiO2-PMMA hasil proses sol-gel. Dari hasil investigasi diketahui bahwa fasa TiO2 amorfus di dalam nanokomposit disebabkan oleh pembentukan cepat dari jaringan kaku Ti-OH selama tahapan hidrolisis dan kondensasi."
