  • The Seneca Effect

    Why Growth is Slow but Collapse is Rapid

    by Ugo Bardi ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    The essence of this book can be found in a line written by the ancient Roman Stoic Philosopher Lucius Annaeus Seneca: "Fortune is of sluggish growth, but ruin is rapid". This sentence summarizes the features of the phenomenon that we call "collapse," which is typically sudden and often unexpected, like the proverbial "house of cards." But why are such collapses so common, and what generates them? ... Read more

  • Optical Response of Nanostructures

    Microscopic Nonlocal Theory

    by Kikuo Cho ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    This book deals with a recently developed theoretical method for calculating the optical response of nanoscale or mesoscopic matter. There has been much interest in this type of matter system because it brings out a new feature of solid state physics, viz. , the central importance of the quantum mechanical coherence of matter in its transport and optical properties, in contrast to bulk systems. ...

  • STM Investigation of Molecular Architectures of Porphyrinoids on a Ag(111) Surface

    Supramolecular Ordering, Electronic Properties and Reactivity

    by Florian Buchner ...
    Series series Chemistry and Material Science (R0)
    The functionalization of surfaces on the nanoscale is one of the most fascinating and at the same time challenging topics in science. It is the key to tailoring catalysts, sensors, or devices for solar energy conversion, whose functional principle is based on the interaction of an active solid surface with another (liquid or gaseous) phase. As an example, planar transition metal complexes adsorbed ... Read more
