This book focuses on modern coordination chemistry covering porous coordination polymers
metalloproteins metallopeptides nanoclusters nanocapsules aligned polymers and fullerenes.
As well it deals with applications to electronic devices and surface characterization. These
wide-ranging topics are integrally described from the perspectives of dimensionality (one-
two- and three-dimension) new materials design synthesis molecular assembly function and
application. The nine chapters that comprise the book have been contributed by leading young
scientists in the field of coordination chemistry in Japan. The level is appropriate for
graduate students post-doc researchers and new faculty members whose aim is to become
familiar with modern coordination chemistry from its basics to applications.
