Inclusion Chemistry with Zeolites : Nanoscale by Design

This work describes modern research in the field of chemistry with zeolites, describing some of the studies on structure direction in synthesis, characterization techniques, computational aspects, co-ordination and organometallic chemistry, photochemistry, and electronic and optical materials.
