Nanomanipulation and environmental nanotechnology

Editor: Prof. Enrico Gnecco

The leitmotif of this Thematic Series is the application of nanotechnology to environmental issues. Since the subject is broad and rapidly evolving it is clearly not possible to completely cover it in this series. Different “flavors” of emerging technologies are rather caught and presented as described by the scientists who are actively contributing to their development. Nanotechnology enters the characterization of processes of environmental interest in a multidisciplinary way. Microscopy techniques, diffraction methods and advanced chemical analysis are included. This Thematic Series is a compilation of papers which provide a wide variety of examples in which nanotechnologies are used to study or potentially solve environmental problems.
