Experimental Innovations in Surface Science: A Guide - Springer - GOOD

This is a source book of \"tricks of the trade\" of surface science, containing descriptions (with at least one illustration for each) of hundreds of techniques, methods, instruments, and tools in common use in surface science -- including physics, chemistry, and engineering. The methods are arranged in topical groupings for easy reference. Each is described succinctly, with a clear sketch of the apparatus involved (and, in many cases, of the physical principles as well). The book covers all the basic methods of surface science (but omits current areas of research such as the various scanning microscopies). It should thus serve not only as a useful reference to those just starting on experimental research in surface science, but also as a \"vade mecum\" for established researchers.
