H. S. Philip Wong is a Professor of Electrical Engineering at Stanford University, where he has worked since 2004. Prior to joining Stanford University, he spent 16 years at IBM T. J. Watson Research Center, Yorktown Heights, New York, where he held various positions from Research Staff Member to Senior Manager. He is a Fellow of the IEEE and his current research covers a broad range of topics including carbon nanotubes, semiconductor nanowires, self-assembly, exploratory logic devices, nanoelectromechanical devices, and novel memory devices. Deji Akinwande is an Assistant Professor at the University of Texas, Austin, which he joined after receiving his Ph.D. from Stanford University in 2009. Prior to beginning his Ph.D., he gained industry experience at Agilent Technologies, XtremeSpectrum/Freescale, and Motorola. He has published widely on carbon nanomaterials.

“I strongly recommend this text book to students, engineers and researchers... Readers, interested in graphene and carbon nanotube based devices, have the possibility to train themselves on the hottest topics and challenges which will pave the future of nanotechnology.” - Simon Deleonibus, ST Microelectronics
