Self-Assembly, Pattern Formation and Growth Phenomena in Nano-Systems NATO Science Series A Series presenting the results of scientific meetings supported under the NATO Science Programme. The Series is published by IOS Press, Amsterdam, and Springer (formerly Kluwer Academic Publishers) in conjunction with the NATO Public Diplomacy Division Sub-Series I. Life and Behavioural Sciences IOS Press II. Mathematics,Physics and Chemistry Springer (formerly Kluwer Academic Publishers) III.Computer and Systems Science IOS Press IV.Earth and Environmental Sciences Springer (formerly Kluwer Academic Publishers) The NATO Science Series continues the series of books published formerly as the NATO ASI Series. The NATO Science Programme offers support for collaboration in civil science between scientists of countries of the Euro-Atlantic Partnership Council.The types of scientific meeting generally supported are “Advanced Study Institutes”and “Advanced Research Workshops”, and the NATO Science Series collects together the results of these meetings.The meetings are co-organized by scientists from NATO countries and scientists from NATO’s Partner countries – countries of the CIS and Central and Eastern Europe. Advanced Study Institutes are high-level tutorial courses offering in-depth study of latest advances in a field. Advanced Research Workshops are expert meetings aimed at critical assessment of a field, and identification of directions for future action. As a consequence of the restructuring of the NATO Science Programme in 1999, the NATO Science Series was re-organized to the four sub-series noted above.Please consult the following web sites for information on previous volumes published in the Series. http://www.nato.int/science http://www.springeronline.com http://www.iospress.nl Series II:Mathematics,Physics and Chemistry – Vol.216 Self-Assembly, Pattern Formation and Growth Phenomena in Nano-Systems edited by Alexander A.Golovin Northwestern University, Evanston, IL, U.S.A. and Alexander A.Nepomnyashchy Israel Institute of Technology, Haifa, Israel Published in cooperation with NATO Public Diplomacy Division Proceedings of the NATO Advanced Study Institute on Self- Assembly, Pattern Formation and Growth Phenomena in Nano-System s St.Etienne de Tinee, France August 28– September 11, 2004 A C.I.P.Catalogue record for this book is available from the Library of Congress.
