Beschreibung
This book shows how a small toolbox of experimental techniques, physical chemistry concepts as well as quantum/classical mechanics and statistical methods can be used to understand, explain and even predict extraordinary applications of these advanced engineering materials and biomolecules. It highlights how improving the material foresight by design, including the fundamental understanding of their physical and chemical properties, can provide new technological levels in the future.
Autorenportrait
Felipe A. La Porta (was born October 1988, in São Paulo, Brazil) received his undergraduate degree in Chemistry 2010 from the Federal University of Lavras (UFLA) and his Ph.D. in Chemistry in 2014 from the São Paulo State University (UNESP) in Araraquara, Brazil. Since 2015, he is currently an Adjunct Professor of chemistry and materials science at the Federal Technological University of Paraná (UTFPR). His research interests are in the field of the materials synthesis, spectroscopic and applications of novel advanced materials from a combination of experimental and theoretical approaches.
Professor Dr. Carlton A. Taft earned the Master of Science (Physics), University of Illinois (USA) in 1969, and the Ph.D. in Physics at the Centro Brasileiro de Pesquisas Físicas in 1975 and did postdoctoral work as a Senior Visitor to the Chemistry Department, University of California (USA), in the 1980s. He was hired at CBPF in 1976 and worked his way up through the decades from Assistant, Associate to Full Professor. He has published 237 international papers in indexed scientific journals, ~250 communications in conferences and 25 book chapters and served as Editor for 7 books, Guest Editor for 6 Special Issues and referee for ~ 50 indexed scientific journals. He works in multidisciplinary areas with focus on theoretical-computational physical/chemical/biological/engineering applications in molecular and material sciences.

Informationen zu E-Books
„E-Book“ steht für digitales Buch. Um diese Art von Büchern lesen zu können wird entweder eine spezielle Software für Computer, Tablets und Smartphones oder ein E-Book Reader benötigt. Da viele verschiedene Formate (Dateien) für E-Books existieren, gilt es dabei, einiges zu beachten.
Von uns werden digitale Bücher in drei Formaten ausgeliefert. Die Formate sind EPUB mit DRM (Digital Rights Management), EPUB ohne DRM und PDF. Bei den Formaten PDF und EPUB ohne DRM müssen Sie lediglich prüfen, ob Ihr E-Book Reader kompatibel ist. Wenn ein Format mit DRM genutzt wird, besteht zusätzlich die Notwendigkeit, dass Sie einen kostenlosen Adobe® Digital Editions Account besitzen. Wenn Sie ein E-Book, das Adobe® Digital Editions benötigt herunterladen, erhalten Sie eine ASCM-Datei, die zu Digital Editions hinzugefügt und mit Ihrem Account verknüpft werden muss. Einige E-Book Reader (zum Beispiel PocketBook Touch) unterstützen auch das direkte Eingeben der Login-Daten des Adobe Accounts – somit können diese ASCM-Dateien direkt auf das betreffende Gerät kopiert werden.
Da E-Books nur für eine begrenzte Zeit – in der Regel 6 Monate – herunterladbar sind, sollten Sie stets eine Sicherheitskopie auf einem Dauerspeicher (Festplatte, USB-Stick oder CD) vorsehen. Auch ist die Menge der Downloads auf maximal 5 begrenzt.
