This book provides a new insight into one of the most promising "bottom-up" techniques, based on a practical magnetron-sputtering inert-gas-condensation method. A modified magnetron-sputtering-based inert-gas-condensation (MS-IGC) system is presented, and its performances under different conditions are evaluated.Graduate students. Researchers in physics, materials science, biophysics, process engineers.Also available in print.Mode of access: World Wide Web.System requirements: Adobe Acrobat Reader.Maria Benelmekki is Senior Staff Scientist at OIST-Graduate University, Japan. After completing a PhD in experimental solid-state physics (1997) at the Autonomous University of Barcelona (UAB-Spain) and postdoctoral work at Ecole National Sup?erieure d'Art et M?etier (ENSAM-France), she joined industrial research as Project Manager, working on international R&D projects relating to a broad range of nanomaterials and their application in food packaging and automotive industries. Eight years later, she joined the Centre of Physics of Minho University (Portugal) where she built up a research topic in the area of nanoparticles and hybrid nanomaterials. She extended her research to fundamental aspects of materials surfaces and interfaces and their performance for biomagnetic separation.Title from PDF title page (viewed on May 1, 2015).
