This book provides a comprehensive overview of a wide range of surfacing methods, detailing their physical basics and technologies.

Each section of the book provides information on the formation of the structure and properties of the deposited metal, the reasons for the formation of defects, and directions for prevention. The book also covers the certification of surfacing procedures, adhering to international standards.

With a focus on practical applications, the book is an essential reference for anyone working in the field of welding and related technologies. It includes...

This concise volume examines the characteristic electronic parameters of semiconductor interfaces, namely the barrier heights of metal–semiconductor or Schottky contacts and the valence-band discontinuities of semiconductor–semiconductor interfaces or heterostructures. Both are determined by the same concept, namely the wave-function tails of electron states overlapping a semiconductor band gap directly at the interface. These interface-induced gap states (IFIGS) result from the complex band structure of the corresponding semiconductor. The IFIGS are characterized by two...
