Following a brief mention of the vital importance of thin oxide layers in the technological development of civilizations over millennia and their ubiquity in Nature, the significance of the advent of nanoscience that enabled the development of ultrathin layers for a wealth of energy-related applications over the past couple of decades is emphasized. Key chemical and physical properties of metal oxide nanolayers and their tunability are described, followed by brief introductions to individual chapters that highlight the connections between them.
