Quantum Mechanics for Nanostructures

Introducing quantum mechanics and the world of nanostructures, this textbook will enable engineers to apply the theories to numerous nanostructure problems. It covers the fundamentals of quantum mechanics and applies these to nanoscale objects and materials, and nanodevices. Several examples throughout the text help students to understand the material.
