This book offers a timely and complete overview on chemical vapour deposition (CVD) and its variants for the processing of nanoparticles, nanowires, nanotubes, nanocomposite coatings, thin and thick films, and composites. Chapters discuss key aspects, from processing, material structure and properties to practical use, cost considerations, versatility, and sustainability. The author presents a comprehensive overview of CVD and its potential in producing high performance, cost-effective nanomaterials and thin and thick films.
Features
- Provides an up-to-date introduction to CVD technology for the fabrication of nanomaterials, nanostructured films, and composite coatings
- Discusses processing, structure, functionalization, properties, and use in clean energy, engineering, and biomedical grand challenges
- Covers thin and thick films and composites
- Compares CVD with other processing techniques in terms of structure/properties, cost, versatility, and sustainability
