Since the first edition of "e;Scanning 'funneling Microscopy I"e; has been pub- lished, considerable progress has been made in the application of STM to the various classes of materials treated in this volume, most notably in the field of adsorbates and molecular systems.
Quantum Optics VI documents the most recent theoretical and experimental developments in this field, with particular emphasis on atomic optics and interferometry, which is a new and rapidly developing area of research.
Naturwissenschaftliche Untersuchungen leisten heute einen wichtigen Beitrag zur Erforschung archäologischer und kunstgeschichtlicher Objekte, denn viele Fragen lassen sich erst mit ihrer Hilfe beantworten: - Woher kommt das Fundstück, das da auf dem Kunstmarkt angeboten wird?
Adsorption on Ordered Surfaces of Ionic Solids and ThinFilms introduces to a new and topical field of surfacescience for which rather little experience is available atpresent.
In this text experts review experimental studies thatdirectly reveal the relationship between the atomicstructure and physical behavior of high-Tc superconductors.
As the role of computer simulations began to increase in importance, we sensed a need for a "e;meeting place"e; for both experienced simulators and neophytes to discuss new techniques and results in an evironment which promotes extended discussion.
This volume in the Springer Series on Surface Sciences presents a recent account of advances in the ever-broadening field of electron-and photon-stimulated sur- face processes.
Der Einsatz objektorientierter Datenbanksysteme zur Datenverwaltung in ingenieurwissenschaftlichen Anwendungen erfordert zum einen eine weitreichende Integration der Anwender in den Datenbankentwurfsprozeß, zum anderen ergeben sich neue, bisher nur unzureichend berücksichtigte Anforderungen im Hinblick auf den Softwareentwurf.
Progress made during the last few years in nonlinear opticsand quantum electronics has significantly increased ourunderstanding of the interactionbetween light and matter.
Owing to the increased availability of synchrotron sources,surface X-ray scattering is a rapidly expanding techniquewith important applications to surface structures andsurface phase transitions, roughening of surfaces andinterfaces, and the structure of liquid surfaces, includingpolymers, liquid crystals, and organic films.
Das Buch behandelt eine Problemstellung, die mit zunehmender Automatisierung der Fertigung (CIM) verschärft auftritt: die Sicherstellung von kollisionsfreien Bahnen für Industrieroboter.
The 1990 International Topical Meeting on Photonic Switching was held April 12-14, 1990, in Kobe, Japan, in conjunction with the 1990 International Meet- ing on Optical Computing.
This book contains the written record of the NATO Advanced Research Workshop on Traditional and Non-Traditional Robotic Sensors held in the Hotel Villa del Mare, Maratea, Italy, August 28 - September 1, 1989.
Limp materials are used in many economically impo~tant industries such as garment manufacture, shoe manufacture, aerospace (composites) and automobiles (seats and trim).
The book treats the C -hydrocarbons and their secondary products as a contribution 4 to chemical engineering economics, applying this field of teaching and research to the technical processes for making and processing this group of products, so important to the chemical industry.
Modern polymer materials are designed by applying principles of correlation between chemical structure, physical macrostructure and technological properties.
The papers presented at the Second International Conference on Robotics and Factories of the Future held in San Diego, California, USA during July 28-31, 1987 are compiled in this volume.
This volume contains the Proceedings of the International Workshop on the Design of Power Sonic and Ultrasonic Transducers, which was held in the Maison de l'Entreprise et des Technologies Nouvelles, Marcq en Baroeul, near Lille, France, on May 26 and 27, 1987.
les Houches This Winter School on "e;The Physics and Fabrication of Microstructures"e; originated with a European industrial decision to investigate in some detail the potential of custom-designed microstructures for new devices.
