Lectures On Solid Surfaces And Interfaces

Lectures On Solid Surfaces And Interfaces - Proceedings Of The International School On Surface Physics

This proceedings contains 9 lectures given by active research scientists, introducing the latest developments in the field of surface physics. The main topics cover both experimental and theoretical aspects of the atomic and electronic structure of semiconductor surface, its characterization by direct and inverse photoemission and STM, chemisorption and bonding on semiconductor, growth of III-V compound semiconductor and metal surface, metal-semiconductor interface and metal silicides.

Lectures on Solid Surfaces and Interfaces

Physics of Surfaces and Interfaces

This graduate-level textbook covers the major developments in surface sciences of recent decades, from experimental tricks and basic techniques to the latest experimental methods and theoretical understanding. It is unique in its attempt to treat the physics of surfaces, thin films and interfaces, surface chemistry, thermodynamics, statistical physics and the physics of the solid/electrolyte interface in an integral manner, rather than in separate compartments. It is designed as a handbook for the researcher as well as a study-text for graduate students. Written explanations are supported by 350 graphs and illustrations.
