Twelve contributions present state-of-the-art reviews of synthesis techniques for producing metals, alloys, oxides, and polymers nanoparticles, with a focus on methods and approaches for controlling and functionalizing nanoparticle surfaces. Control of such characteristics as wetting and adhesion, dispersion in matrices, catalytic properties, and ordering of the interfacial region pertains to applications in nanofabrication, nanopatterning, self-assembly, nanosensors, bioprobes, drug delivery, pigments phtocatlysis, LEDs, among others. Articles begin with contents, are distinctly subdivided, amply illustrated, and most authors conclude their chapters by highlighting challenging issues. A list of references follows each chapter, and the book is fully indexed. Contributors are from the US, Germany, Belgium, Austria, Germany France, Japan, and Israel; editor Baraton, a physics Ph.D., is senior scientist in the Department of Ceramics at the University of Limoges, France.
