Materials, built from nanoparticles and thus possess a nanostructure, behave very differently compared to their amorphous or crystalline counterparts. In consequence, they can be applied in many unique ways. This book discusses synthesis and design of nanostructured materials and their spectroscopic characterization. A special emphasis is laid on luminescent materials and their application.
