Opis

Many of the most important properties of materials in high-technology applications are strongly influenced or even controlled by the presence of solid interfaces. In this work, leading international authorities review the broad range of subjects in this field focusing on the atomic level properties of solid interfaces.

Recenzje

`The book is a landmark in mapping the present status of a broad field, the essential unity of which was obscured until this collection of essays pointed it out. Materials interfaces will be a standard reference for some time to come.'
