It is widely recognized that an understanding of the physical and chemical properties of clusters will give a great deal of important information relevant to surface and bulk properties of condensed matter.
Diamond films grown by activated chemical vapor deposition have superlative thermal, mechanical, optical, and electronic properties combined with a very high degree of chemical inertness to most environments.
This book is based on the contributions to the 17th International School of Materials Sci- ence and Technology, entitled Nonlinear Waves in Solid State Physics.

This NATO Advanced Study Institute held at Gei10, Norway, April 16th-27th 1979, was the fifth in a series devoted to the subject of phase transitions and instabilities.
The concept of this book - an integrated and comprehensive cov- erage of all aspects of Raman spectroscopy by a group of specialist- took form nearly three years ago.
These proceedings report the lectures and seminars presented at the NATO Advanced Study Institute on "e;Optical Properties of Ions in Solids,"e; held at Erice, Italy, June 6-21, 1974.
The impact which has been made on spectroscopy by lasers, and by this route on major segments of physics and chemistry, has received ample documen- tation in the past several years.
Some knowledge of the principles of quantum mechanics and how they are applied to theoretical chemistry, it is generally agreed, should be part of the education of all chemists.
During the years since the first conference in this series was held at Thousand Oaks, California, in 1970, ion implantation has been an expanding and exciting research area.
In recent years high-resolution nuclear magnetic resonance spec- troscopy has found very wide application in organie chemistry in structural and physicochemical investigations and.
The aim of this volume is to provide advanced predoctoral students and young postdoctoral physicists with an opportunity to study the concepts of tunneling phenomena in solids and the theoretical and experimental techniques for their investigation.
Since the study of the solid state began it has been necessary to use increasingly refined experimental techniques, of which electron spin resonance is an important example, in the effort to gain information concerning the structure and properties of an immense and varied range of solids.
This referenced compilation of magnetic transition temperatures represents (with the Addendum) papers actually received by the RMIC through May 1972 and consists of two lists (alphabetical by compounds), one for Curie and one for Neel temperatures.
This volume contains the lectures and seminars presented at the NATO Advanced Study Institute on "e;Applied Laser Spectroscopy"e; the fourteenth course of the Europhysics School of Quantum Electronics, held under the supervision of the Quantum Electronics Division of the European Physical Society.
In addition to the topics discussed in the First Edition, this Second Edition contains introductory treatments of superconducting materials and of ferromagnetism.
These volumes contain the invited and contributed talks of the first general Conference of the Condensed Matter Division of the European Physical Society, which took place at the campus of the University of Antwerpen
The extensive use of low-energy accelerators in non-nuclear physics has now reached the stage where these activities are recognized as a natural field of investigation.
IN view of the growing interest in spectroscopy at radio and micro- wave frequencies, and the increasing number of its applications to both physics and chemistry, it was thought that a general outline of the subject for non-specialists might be of some value.
