Introduction to Scanning Tunneling Microscopy

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

The scanning tunneling and the atomic force microscope, both capable of imaging individual atoms, were crowned with the Physics Nobel Prize in 1986, and are the cornerstones of nanotechnology today. The 1st edition has nurtured numerous beginners and experts since 1993. The 2nd edition is a thoroughly updated version of this 'bible' in the field.
