Surface Science: Lectures on Basic Concepts and Applications (Springer Proceedings in Physics)

In this book "surface science" is understood in a broad sense, taken to include two-dimensional structures such as thin films and superlattices. Thecontributions reflect current research activities in surface and thin-film science in Latin-America, presenting a clear picture of the research centers,...

Graphite Fibers and Filaments (Springer Series in Materials Science)

This book was begun after three of the present authors gave a series of in vited talks on the subject of the structure and properties of carbon filaments. This was at a conference on the subject of optical obscuration, for which submicrometer diameter filaments with high length-to-diameter ratios ha...

Grasshoppers of Northwest South America 2

This is the second volume of an intended trilogy of photo guides to the grasshoppers inhabiting Northwest South America. Over a hundred species of common and not so easily found, dazzling and cryptic grasshoppers and katydids either living in the suburbia of tropical cities or in the most remote are...

Introduction to Solid-State Theory (Springer Series in Solid-State Sciences)

Introduction to Solid-State Theory is a textbook for graduate students of physics and materials science. It also provides the theoretical background needed by physicists doing research in pure solid-state physics and its applications to electrical engineering. The fundamentals of solid-state theory ...

Light Scattering in Solids VI: Recent Results, Including High-Tc Superconductivity (Topics in Applied Physics)

This is the sixth volume of a well-established and popular series in which expert practitioners discuss topical aspects of light scattering in solids. This volume discusses recent results of Raman spectroscopy of high Tc superconductors, organic polymers, rare earth compounds, semimagnetic supercond...

Light Scattering in Solids v: Superlattices and Other Microstructures (Topics in Applied Physics)

This book is the fifth in a series devoted to the theory and practice of inelastic light scattering (Raman and Brillouin) as applied to amorphous and crystalline solids. This volume is concerned with the investigation by these techniques of artificial periodic structures prepared by such gas-phase d...

Light Scattering in Solids IX: Novel Materials and Techniques (Topics in Applied Physics)

This volume treats new materials (nanotubes and quantum dots) and new techniques (synchrotron radiation scattering and cavity confined scattering). In the past five years, Raman and Brillouin scattering have taken a place among the most important research and characterization methods for carbon nano...
