Functional Hybrid Materials consist of both organic and inorganic components, assembled for the purpose of generating desirable properties and functionalities. The aim is twofold: to bring out or enhance advantageous chemical, electrochemical, magnetic or electronic characteristics and at the same time to reduce or wholly suppress undesirable properties or effects. Another target is the creation of entirely new material behavior. The vast number of hybrid material components available has opened up a wide and diversified field of fascinating research. In this book, a team of highly renowned experts gives an in-depth overview, illustrating the superiority of well-designed hybrid materials and their potential applications.

The 40th volume of the journal contains articles that present to readers the research results in properties and some specific features of application metal-oxide and gold nanoparticles, carbon nanotubes, hybrid metal-halide perovskite for optoelectronics application and conducting solid biopolymer electrolytes for sodium-ion batteries. This volume will be helpful to specialists in optoelectronics, energy storage and chemists whose activity is related to applied nanotechnology, and the synthesis and investigation of nanomaterials.
