Opis

Scanning Probe Microscopy - Analytical Methods provides a comprehensive overview of the analytical methods on the nanometer scale based on scanning probe microscopy and spectroscopy. Numerous examples of applications of the chemical contrast mechanism down to the atomic scale in surface physics and chemistry are discussed with extensive references to original work in the recent literature.
