Surface and Interface Science, Volume 2: Properties of Elemental Surfaces

by Klaus Wandelt (Editor) 

Covering interface science from a novel surface science perspective, this unique handbook offers a comprehensive overview of this burgeoning field.

Eight topical volumes cover basic concepts & methods, elemental and composite surfaces, solid-gas, solid-liquid and inorganic-biological interfaces, as well as applications of surface science in nanotechnology, materials science and molecular electronics.

With its broad scope and clear structure, it is ideal as a reference for scientists working in the field, as well as an introduction for newcomers.
