Comprehensive textbook covering characterization techniques to understand the chemistry and structure of materials on surfaces and at interfaces
Surface and Interface Analysis is a comprehensive textbook resource that covers everything readers need to know about surface energy, molecular speciation, and optical and physical characterization techniques. Assuming only basic knowledge of general chemistry (electronic orbitals, organic functional groups), physics (electromagnetic waves, Maxwell equations), physical chemistry (Schrödinger equation, harmonic oscillator), and mathematics (wave equations, covariance matrix), this textbook helps readers understand the underlying principles of the discussed characterization techniques and enables them to transform theoretical knowledge into applied skills through a Maieutic pedagogical approach.
Written by a highly qualified professor, Surface and Interface Analysis: Principles and Applications includes information on:
- Relationship between atomic and molecular orbitals and compositional analysis principles based on measurements of photoelectrons, Auger electrons, X-rays, and secondary ions emitted from the surface
- Governance of electromagnetic wave propagation in a dielectric medium and what can be learned from analyzing the electromagnetic wave reflected from the interface
- Surface metrology using light reflection (non-contact) and scanning probe (contact) and analysis of mechanical properties through indentation
- Artifacts and misinterpretations that may be encountered during analysis
Surface and Interface Analysis is an ideal textbook resource on the subject for graduate students in the fields of solid state physics, optics, materials science, chemistry, and engineering who want to learn and apply advanced materials characterization methods, along with undergraduate students in advanced elective courses.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to Kennys Bookstore, Olney, Maryland, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
