Materials Processing - Theory and Practices, Volume 1: Fine Line Lithography reviews technical information as well as the theory and practices of materials processing.
Much progress has been made in the understanding of the general properties of the dielectric function and in the calculation of this quantity for many classes of media.
Since the development of the laser in the early 1960's, light scattering has played an increasingly crucial role in the investigation of many types of phase transitions and the published work in this field is now widely dispersed in a large number of books and journals.
The objective of these proceedings was to provide a platform for the exchange of information on the design, construction and operation of fusion experiments.
The aim of these proceedings is to present and stimulate discussion on the many subjects related to ion implantation among a broad mix of specialists from areas as diverse as materials science, device production and advanced ion implanters.
Topics discussed at this international workshop include: magnetic fields in astrophysical flows, slow and fast dynamos, MHD turbulence in space plasmas and in the laboratory, exact solutions to MHD, topology and chaos in MHD, helicity and velocity-magnetic correlations, turbulent reconnection and non-magnetic flows.
In the almost fifty years that have gone by since the first volume of Progress in Optics was published, optics has become one of the most dynamic fields of science.
In this book emphasis is laid on laser including its operation, different types, properties like coherence and monochromaticity, beam propagation, theoretical treatment of atom-field interaction, semi-classical laser theory, non-linear effects, quantum properties, photon concept and coherent states etc.
