Dieser detaillierte Führer beschreibt die bedeutenderen experimentellen Oberflächentechniken, die in der Werkstoffkunde bei der Lösung spezieller Probleme eingesetzt werden. Er enthält eine Einführung in die Strukturen von Oberflächen und deren Zusammensetzung, spezielle Kapitel über Techniken und einen ausführlichen Abschnitt über Anwendungen. Das Werk stellt somit eine umfassende Zusammenfassung dar, die den neuesten Stand des Forschungsgebietes wiedergibt. Es ist für Werkstofforscher und Oberflächenphysiker von besonderem Interesse.

This guide to the use of surface analysis techniques, now in its second edition, has expanded to include more techniques, current applications and updated references. It outlines the application of surface analysis techniques to a broad range of studies in materials science and engineering. The book consists of three parts: an extensive introduction, a techniques section and a section on applications. Each chapter has been written by specialists in the field. This book is aimed at industrial scientists and engineers in R&D seeking a description of available techniques in a concise but informative style. It is invaluable as a comprehensive text and reference for scientists and engineers attending training courses and workshops

Comprehensive compilation of surface analysis tools for physicists, materials scientists, chemists and engineers Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras
