Nanoparticles and nanodevices in biological applications v. I The INFN lectures

This is the first volume in a series of books on selected topics in NanoscaleScience and Technology based on lectures given at the well-known INFN schoolsof the same name. The aim of this collection is to provide a reference corpusof suitable, introductory material to relevant subfields, as they mature overtime, by gathering the significantly expanded and edited versions of tutoriallectures, given over the years by internationally known experts. The present set of notes results in particular from the participation and dedication of prestigious lecturers, such as Vincenzo Balzani, Santina Carnazza, Andrea Salis Barbara Panessa-Warren and Stefano Bellucci. As usual, the lectures were subsequently carefully edited and reworked, taking into account the extensive follow-up discussions.
