Recent trends and progress in the field of materials surface processing by energetic radiation using lasers, lamps and/or synchrotron radiation are reviewed in this volume. All aspects of photon assisted materials surface processing, from basic studies to novel phenomena for applications and devices are discussed. Surface, interface and thin film reactions of dielectrics, semi- and super-conductors, metals, organic and biological materials are emphasized in terms of fundamental understanding and their criteria are assessed for future practical applications. The work should prove a useful reference source for those interested in keeping abreast of the key issues in this unique area of materials surface processing, ranging from basic phenomena to applications in industry.
