'This book is an invaluable resource for understanding the field of RF nanoelectronics and the challenges and practice of high frequency measurement technology at the nanoscale. It provides a comprehensive overview of how RF measurement techniques and nanotechnology measurement methodology have merged to realize new technologies such as near-field scanning microwave microscopy and RF scanning probe microscopy, as well as looking at practical applications in nanoscale semiconductor devices and circuits, nanomagnetic systems and the life sciences. The book is a very state-of-the-art treatise on the field of microwave technology at the nanoscale, which every student and practitioner in the field of RF nanoelectronics should have.' Stephen M. Goodnick, Arizona State University
