This book is a new edition of a classic text on experimental methods and instruments in surface science. It offers practical insight useful to chemists, physicists, and materials scientists working in experimental surface science. This enlarged second edition contains almost 300 descriptions of experimental methods. The more than 50 active areas with individual scientific and measurement concepts and activities relevant to each area are presented in this book. The key areas covered are: Vacuum System Technology, Mechanical Fabrication Techniques, Measurement Methods, Thermal Control, Delivery of Adsorbates to Surfaces, UHV Windows, Surface Preparation Methods, High Area Solids, Safety. The book is written for researchers and graduate students.

Experimental Innovations in Surface Science: A Guide to Practical Laboratory Methods and Instruments (Studies in Geophysical Optics and)
(This is a source book of "tricks of the trade" of surface...)
This is a source book of "tricks of the trade" of surface science, containing descriptions (with at least one illustration for each) of hundreds of techniques, methods, instruments, and tools in common use in surface science -- including physics, chemistry, and engineering. The methods are arranged in topical groupings for easy reference. Each is described succinctly, with a clear sketch of the apparatus involved (and, in many cases, of the physical principles as well). The book covers all the basic methods of surface science (but omits current areas of research such as the various scanning microscopies). It should thus serve not only as a useful reference to those just starting on experimental research in surface science, but also as a "vade mecum" for established researchers.
