Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
This book describes the physical basis and applications of all of the principal techniques, and most of the lesser techniques, used in surface science today. They are grouped according to the underlying physics and are described in eight chapters. The treatment of each technique is thorough, but an exhaustive survey characteristic of a scientific review is not attempted. The physics underlying each technique is described carefully, together with the kind of instrumentation used. The strengths and limitations of each technique are brought out through discussion of examples of applications and results, chosen mainly from studies of the physics and chemistry (including adsorption, crystallography and catalytic properties) of well-characterised surfaces.
Includes bibliographical references (pages 438-446) and index.
Introduction -- Surface crystallography and electron diffraction -- Electron spectroscopies -- Incident ion techniques -- Desorption spectroscopies -- High field techniques -- Work function techniques -- Atomic and molecular beam scattering -- Vibrational spectroscopies.
