  • Introduction to Surface and Thin Film Processesby John A. Venables

    Cambridge University Press 2000; US$ 66.00

    This book covers the experimental and theoretical background to surface and thin film processes, presenting extensive leads into practical and research literature, as well as to resources on the World Wide Web (see http://venables.asu.edu/book). Each chapter contains detailed problems. Suitable as a graduate textbook and sourcebook. more...

  • Principles of Vapor Deposition of Thin Filmsby Professor K.S. K.S Sree Harsha

    Elsevier 2006; US$ 285.00

    The goal of producing devices that are smaller, faster, more functional, reproducible, reliable and economical has given thin film processing a unique role in technology. Principles of Vapor Deposition of Thin Films brings in to one place a diverse amount of scientific background that is considered essential to become knowledgeable in thin film depostition techniques. Its ultimate goal as a reference is to provide the foundation upon which thin film science and technological innovation are possible. * Offers detailed derivation of important formulae. * Thoroughly covers the basic principles of materials science that are important to any thin film preparation. * Careful attention to terminologies, concepts and definitions, as well as... more...

  • Complex Wave Dynamics on Thin Filmsby Hen-hong Chang; E.A. Demekhin

    Elsevier 2002; US$ 250.00

    Wave evolution on a falling film is a classical hydrodynamic instability whose rich wave dynamics have been carefully recorded in the last fifty years. Such waves are known to profoundly affect the mass and heat transfer of multi-phase industrial units. This book describes the collective effort of both authors and their students in constructing a comprehensive theory to describe the complex wave evolution from nearly harmonic waves at the inlet to complex spatio-temporal patterns involving solitary waves downstream. The mathematical theory represents a significant breakthrough from classical linear stability theories, which can only describe the inlet harmonic waves and also extends classical soliton theory for integrable systems to real... more...

  • Thin Film Analysis by X-Ray Scatteringby Mario Birkholz

    Wiley-VCH 2006; US$ 205.00

    With contributions by Paul F. Fewster and Christoph Genzel While X-ray diffraction investigation of powders and polycrystalline matter was at the forefront of materials science in the 1960s and 70s, high-tech applications at the beginning of the 21st century are driven by the materials science of thin films. Very much an interdisciplinary field, chemists, biochemists, materials scientists, physicists and engineers all have a common interest in thin films and their manifold uses and applications. Grain size, porosity, density, preferred orientation and other properties are important to know: whether thin films fulfill their intended function depends crucially on their structure and morphology once a chemical composition has been chosen. Although... more...

  • Falling Liquid Filmsby S. Kalliadasis; C. Ruyer-Quil; B. Scheid

    Springer 2012; US$ 124.00

    This research monograph gives a detailed review of the state-of-the-art theoretical methodologies for the analysis of dissipative wave dynamics and pattern formation on the surface of a film falling down a planar, inclined substrate. This prototype is an open-flow hydrodynamic instability representing an excellent paradigm for the study of complexity in active nonlinear media with energy supply, dissipation and dispersion. Whenever possible, the link between theory and experiments is illustrated and the development of order-of-magnitude estimates and scaling arguments is used to facilitate the understanding of the underlying basic physics. It will be of benefit to a variety of readers, including advanced graduate students interested in interfacial... more...
