Tomorrow's nanoscientist will have a truly interdisciplinary and nano-centric education, rather than, for example, a degree in chemistry with a specialization in nanoscience. For this to happen, the field needs a truly focused and dedicated textbook. This full-color masterwork is such a textbook.

It introduces the nanoscale along with the societal impacts of nanoscience, then presents an overview of characterization and fabrication methods. The authors systematically discuss the chemistry, ph...

Einstein understood “Quantum Mechanics” and “Quantum Field Theory” better than many modern physicist does, because he understood the Deeper Layers in Physics. The fundamental layer in physics, that probability is not the “Foundation of our Universe”. Albert Einstein was much more like Isaac Newton who saw and understood, 300 years ago, through his tiny little telescope the fundamental foundation of the universe better than most modern physicists do. When modern scientists observe ...

David Hume said that although a mountain exists and gold exists, a golden mountain is not real. In the same manner, we cannot simply combine abstractions of reality and assume they refer in any meaningful way to reality.

If you are a physicist, prepare to have many of your beliefs shaken to the ground. This book shows that many of the abstract notions in contemporary physics, like probability distribution and entanglement are merely golden mountains.

But this book does not only perform a har...

°New oxygen - Compiling his know-how in concept formation from Integrated Product Design (IPD) into Integrated Quantum Design (IQD), product designer Koenraad M.L.L.Van Spaendonck (Alumnus of the University of Antwerp UA 1995) injects new oxygen into the quest for a theory of quantum gravity with a unifying character. Entailing a.o. the breeding ground for a universal building block for space and matter, and a finite abacus for space from which time emerges.

°New causal principles work toge...

This monograph has gathered together three extraordinary problems in theoretical physics to be solved exactly. The problems range from the long-standing limit problem of the simple harmonic oscillator in quantum mechanics, the unfolding of a hidden symmetry in the Markovian birth-and-death equations, to the four-hundred-year-old problem of the simple pendulum. Therefore, this monograph is a rare "three-of-a-kind" collection of major essays on seemingly unsolvable problems in physics.

According to Maxwell’s equations Electromagnetic Waves can only propagate along straight lines and it is impossible that Light (Electromagnetic Waves) could confine with the surface of a sphere or an ellipse. For that reason, these material waves in Schrödinger’s wave equation could only be of a different origin than Electromagnetic Waves. Niels Bohr introduced the concept of “Probability Waves” as the origin of the material waves in Schrödinger’s wave equation. And defined the Ne...

Fourier analysis is a ubiquitous tool that has found application to diverse areas of physics and engineering. Goodman focuses on applications in optics, and in particular with applications to diffraction, imaging, optical information processing, holography, and optical communications.

Goodman, Introduction to Fourier Optics satisfies the needs of several different types of Physics and Engineering courses. Directed towards both physicists and engineers this text is suitable for audiences focus...
