Download or read book Applications of Synchrotron Radiation Techniques to Materials Science II: Volume 375 written by Louis J. Terminello and published by . This book was released on 1995-03-16 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Volume I in this series promised that the advent of third-generation light sources would enhance synchrotron-based materials research. This second volume fulfills the promise, featuring many experiments that required newer, higher-brightness sources, and could not have been performed with earlier vintage synchrotrons. The book focuses on the characterization of reduced dimensional systems, and highlights studies of surfaces, interfaces, polymers, glasses, thin films, magnetic materials, metal systems, multilayers and electronic materials. Topics include: thin films; magnetic materials; surfaces, clusters, quantum systems, and methods; interfaces (solid/solid, solid/liquid); layered compounds, alloys and novel materials; and microprobe, tomography and microscopy.
