Introduction to Focused Ion Beamsby Lucille A. Giannuzzi; Fred A. Stevie
Springer 2005; US$ 115.00Introduction to Focused Ion Beams is geared towards techniques and applications. This is the only text that discusses and presents the theory directly related to applications and the only one that discusses the vast applications and techniques used in FIBs and dual platform instruments. more...
Gas Discharges And Thermal Imagingby Joseph W. Spencer
Emerald Group Publishing Limited 2003; US$ 199.00It is often refreshing and surprisingly useful to research topics that you had previously overlooked. In this issue gas discharges come under the spotlight. We include papers that describe how gas discharges and plasmas may be analysed, and also a paper (refer to p. more...
Gaseous Electronicsby Gorur Govinda Raju
CRC Press 2005; US$ 159.95The interaction of electrons with gas neutrals, excited states, and other charge carriers is most recognizable in florescent bulbs and neon signs, says Raju (U. of Windsor, Ontario), but the really exciting realm of gaseous electronics now is the laser. He presents a graduate or senior-undergraduate textbook that looks at and evaluates experimental more...
Introduction to the Physics of Highly Charged Ionsby Heinrich F. Beyer
CRC Press 2002; US$ 129.95An introduction to the physics of highly charged ions. This book covers the major areas of X-ray radiation and elementary atomic processes occuring with highly charged ions in hot laboratory and astrophysical plasmas. more...
Dissociative Recombination of Molecular Ionsby Mats Larsson; Ann E. Orel
Cambridge University Press 2008; US$ 130.00A definitive guide to dissociative recombination of molecular ions with electrons, a critical molecular process. more...
Angle-Resolved Photoemissionby S.D. Kevan
Elsevier 1992; US$ 358.00Angle-resolved photoemission has become an indispensable tool for solid state and surface physicists and chemists. This book covers the underlying phenomenology of the technique, reviews its application to existing problems, and discusses future applications. The book is particularly timely given the significant improvements in experimental and theoretical methodology which have recently been or soon will be attained, namely, ultrahigh resolution studies using improved sources of synchrotron radiation, quasiparticle interpretation of measured dispersion relations and spectra, in situ growth of novel materials, etc. The technique has been applied predominantly to understand materials for which the one-electron paradigm is a reasonable... more...
Angle and Spin Resolved Auger Emissionby G. Ecker; H. Kleinpoppen
Springer 2008; US$ 179.00The Auger effect must be interpreted as the radiationless counterpart of photoionization and is usually described within a two-step model. Angle and spin resolved Auger emission physics deals with the theoretical and numerical description, analysis and interpretation of such types of experiments on free atoms and molecules. This monograph derives the general theory applying the density matrix formalism and, in terms of irreducible tensorial sets, so called state multipoles and order parameters, for parameterizing the atomic and molecular systems, respectively. Propensity rules and non-linear dependencies between the angular distribution and spin polarization parameters are included in the discussion. The numerical approaches utilizing relativistic... more...
Lectures on the Forces of Matterby Michael Faraday
The Floating Press 1859; US$ 6.95The pleasure which all derive from the expositions of Faraday is of a somewhat different kind to that produced by any other philosopher whose lectures we have ever attended. It is partially derived from his extreme dexterity as an operator with him we have no chance of apologies for an unsucessful experiment, no hanging fire in the midst of a series of brilliant demonstrations, producing that depressing tendency akin to the pain felt by an audience at a false note from a vocalist... more...
Handbook of Vacuum Arc Science & Technologyby Raymond L. Boxman; David Sanders; Philip J. Martin
Elsevier 1996; US$ 197.00This is a comprehensive text describing the basic physics and technological applications of vacuum arcs. Part I describes basic physics of the vacuum arc, beginning with a brief tutorial review of plasma and electrical discharge physics, then describes the arc ignition process, cathode and anode spots which serve as the locus for plasma generation, and resultant interelectrode plasma. Part II describes the applications of the vacuum arc for depositing thin films and coatings, refining metals, switching high power, and as sources of intense electron, ion, plasma, and x-ray beams. more...
Cathodic Arcsby Andre Anders
Springer 2008; US$ 159.00Emphasizes the fractal character of cathode spots, and describes strongly fluctuating plasma properties such as the presence of multiply charged ions that move with supersonic velocity. This book also deals with issues, such as arc source construction, and macroparticle removal. It is intended for scientists, practitioners, and students alike. more...
