Kurzbeschreibung Molecular Electronics: From Principles to Practice provides an introduction to the interdisciplinary subject of molecular electronics. This single-authored text provides sufficient background material (e.g. chemical bonding in organic compounds, materials science, electronic band structure of conductive polymers) in the earlier chapters to attract postgraduate students and researchers from a wide range of disciplines who wish to gain both an overview of molecular electronics and an insight into its possible uses. Practical information, such as how organic compounds can be processed into thin films and devices, and methods to measure the physical properties of the materials and devices are included.
