Nanotechnology and Applied Nanosciences

This section is intended for accounts of works pertaining to nanotechnology or to nanosciences oriented towards applications. More specifically, papers dealing with the production, manipulation or assembly of nanostructures, the construction or characterization of nano-architectures, the design of nanoscale devices, the use of nanoparticles or nanostructures to improve macroscopic properties of materials and systems ... are welcome. By contrast, works focusing on toxicity of nanomaterials, nano-biological research involving living cells, viruses, bacteria ... and works involving bio-ethical issues should be addressed to more specialized journals.
