Nanoscience and Nanotechnology: An International Journal (NST) is a global forum for the communication of comprehensive articles on nanoscience and nanotechnology research, especially interdisciplinary studies at the interfaces of materials science, physics, chemistry, biology, electronics, energy, and engineering. Among the areas of interest to the journal are: • Synthesis and processing of inorganic, organic and hybrid nanosized materials • Theory, modeling and simulation of nanometer-scale objects and synthetic, assembly, and interaction processes • Crystal structure, physical properties and characterization of nanomaterials and nanodevices • Application of novel nanostructures and nanodevices in photonics, electronics, energy harvesting, energy storages, and bio-medical
