Provides in-depth knowledge on molecular electronics and emphasizes the techniques for designing molecular junctions with controlled functionalities This comprehensive book covers the major advances with the most general applicability in the field of molecular electronic devices. It emphasizes new insights into the development of efficient platform methodologies for building such reliable devices with desired functionalities through the combination of programmed bottom-up self-assembly and sophisticated top-down device fabrication. It also helps to develop an understanding of the device fabrication processes and the characteristics of the resulting electrode-molecule interface. Beginning with an introduction to the subject, Molecular-Scale Electronics: Concept, Fabrication and Applications offers full chapter coverage on topics such as: Metal Electrodes for Molecular Electronics; Carbon Electrodes for Molecular Electronics; Other Electrodes for Molecular Electronics; Novel Phenomena in Single-Molecule Junctions; and Supramolecular Interactions in Single-Molecule Junctions. Other chapters discuss Theoretical Aspects for Electron Transport through Molecular Junctions; Characterization Techniques for Molecular Electronics; and Integrating Molecular Functionalities into Electrical Circuits. The book finishes with a summary of the primary challenges facing the field and offers an outlook at its future. * Summarizes a number of different approaches for forming molecular-scale junctions and discusses various experimental techniques for examining these nanoscale circuits in detail * Gives overview of characterization techniques and theoretical simulations for molecular electronics * Highlights the major contributions and new concepts of integrating molecular functionalities into electrical circuits * Provides a critical discussion of limitations and main challenges that still exist for the development of molecular electronics * Suited for readers studying or doing research in the broad fields of Nano/molecular electronics and other device-related fields Molecular-Scale Electronics is an excellent book for materials scientists, electrochemists, electronics engineers, physical chemists, polymer chemists, and solid-state chemists. It will also benefit physicists, semiconductor physicists, engineering scientists, and surface chemists.

This book provides a comprehensive overview of dictyostelids, the second major group of slime molds and one of the most abundant and widespread microorganisms in terrestrial ecosystems. The chapters cover a wide range of topics, including the biology, morphology, and social behavior of dictyostelids, as well as methods for isolating and culturing them in laboratory settings. Readers will gain insights into the dispersal mechanisms, biogeography, and molecular studies that have advanced our understanding of these organisms. The book also examines the symbiotic relationships that dictyostelids maintain with bacteria and other microorganisms, offering insights into their complex interactions and evolutionary significance. The book highlights the latest molecular studies that have reshaped their classification and revealed potential bioactive compounds with antibacterial and anticancer properties. Since their discovery in 1869, nearly 200 species have been identified across habitats ranging from the high Arctic to the subantarctic, with approximately 30% of these species described in this volume. Often confused with the myxomycetes, dictyostelids possess unique life cycles and distinct biological significance. The book explores their primary microhabitat—the soil and humus layer of forest floors—as well as other environments where they play vital ecological roles and serve as model organisms in studies of cell development and evolution. This book is an essential resource for researchers, scholars, and students in microbiology, ecology, and related fields. With well-illustrated content, including microscopic images, this volume offers a detailed and engaging exploration of dictyostelids, inviting readers to appreciate their complexity and significance in the natural world.

This book is part of the 4-volumes collection of Atlas of Chinese Macrofungal Resources. This atlas documented 1819 species (or varieties) in 509 genera of macrofungi known from China, which are, according to their morphological characteristics, practically divided into 10 groups, including 196 larger ascomycetes, 21 jelly fungi, 47 coral fungi, 637 polyporoid, hydnaceous and lephoroid fungi, 11 cantharelloid fungi, 653 agarics, 130 boletes, 75 gasteroid fungi, 16 larger pathogenic fungi on crops, and 33 larger myxomycetes.All species are evidenced with vouchers and photographs. About 370 of the listed species (occupying 1/5 of the total species) have their type localities in China, among which over 260 species (accounting for 1/7 of the species) were firstly discovered and published by the present authors. Some of the species are endemic to China and East Asia. Descriptions of all species are accompanied with color photographs showing their macro-morphology and (or) habitat. The macroscopic and microscopic diagnostic characters, ecological habits, economic importance (edibility, medicinal availability or toxicity) and geographical distribution in China of all species are described in brief and easy-to-understand style. In the guide, the characteristics and using method of the book, related mycological vocabulary, common taxonomic techniques and positions of the fungal genera in modern taxonomic system are briefly introduced.The knowledge of this book should be interesting to mycologists, mycology fans and mushroom lovers, as well as researchers, teachers and students studying on edible fungi, plant pathology, healthcare and biomedicine sciences, bioresources and biodiversity, ecology and other related disciplines. It is an ideal reference for those who are interested in the Chinese macrofungi and larger slime molds.In this third volume, it covers Cantharelloid fungi & Agarics.
