Solid Surfaces, Interfaces and Thin FilmsAuthor(s): Hans Lth\nFormat: Paperback\nPublisher: Springer International Publishing AG, Switzerland\nImprint: Springer International Publishing AG\nISBN-13: 9783319307541, 978-3319307541\nSynopsis\nThis book emphasises both experimental and theoretical aspects of surface, interface and thin-film physics. As in previous editions the preparation of surfaces and thin films, their atomic and morphological structure, their vibronic and electronic properties as well as fundamentals of adsorption are treated. Because of their importance in modern information technology and nanostructure research, particular emphasis is paid to electronic surface and interface states, semiconductor space charge layers and heterostructures. A special chapter of the book is devoted to collective phenomena at interfaces and in thin films such as superconductivity and magnetism. The latter topic includes the meanwhile important issues giant magnetoresistance and spin-tra.
