This means that they can demonstrate new phenomena such as charge-density waves and can display nanoparticulate (0D), fibrous (1D) and lamellar (2D) morphologies.  \u003cp\u003eThis text presents some of the most recent research into the synthesis and properties of these solids and covers:\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eMetal Oxide Nanoparticles\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eInorganic Nanotubes and Nanowires\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eBiomedical Applications of Layered Double Hydroxides\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eCarbon Nanotubes and Related Structures\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eSuperconducting Borides\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003eIntroducing topics such as novel layered superconductors, inorganic-DNA delivery systems and the chemistry and physics of inorganic nanotubes and nanosheets, this book discusses some of the most exciting concepts in this developing field.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAdditional volumes in the \u003ci\u003eInorganic Materials\u003c\/i\u003e Book Series:\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eMolecular Materials\u003cbr\u003e Functional Oxides\u003cbr\u003e Porous Materials\u003cbr\u003e Energy Materials\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAll volumes are sold individually or as comprehensive 5 Volume Set.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e  \u003cb\u003eProfessor Duncan Bruce\u003c\/b\u003e graduated from the University of Liverpool (UK), where he also gained his PhD. In 1984, he took up a Temporary Lectureship in Inorganic Chemistry at the University of Sheffield and was awarded a Royal Society Warren Research Fellowship. He was then appointed Lecturer in Chemistry and later Senior Lecturer and co-director of the Sheffield Centre for Molecular Materials. In 1995, he was appointed Professor of Inorganic Chemistry at the University of Exeter. Following the closure of Exeter's chemistry department in 2005, Professor Bruce took up his present position as Professor of Materials Chemistry in York. He is currently Chair of the Royal Society of Chemistry Materials Chemistry Forum. His current research interests include liquid crystals and silicates. His work has been recognized by various awards including the British Liquid Crystal Society's first Young Scientist prize and the RSC's Sir Edward Frankland Fellowship and Corday-Morgan Medal and Prize. He has held visiting positions in Australia, France, Japan and Italy.  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDr. Richard Walton\u003c\/b\u003e, who was also formerly based in the Department of Chemistry at the University of Exeter, now works in the Department of Chemistry at the University of Warwick.
