Reflection Electron Microscopy and Spectroscopy for Surface Analysis [Paperback]

A self-contained book on electron microscopy and spectrometry techniques for surface studies.In this book, RHEED, REM and REELS techniques are comprehensively reviewed for the first time. The text is written to combine basic techniques with special applications, theories with experiments, and the basic physics with materials science, so that a full picture of RHEED and REM emerges. The book is written for materials scientists and graduate students and is entirely self-contained. FORTRAN source codes are provided for calculating crystal structure data and electron energy-loss spectra in different scattering geometries.In this book, RHEED, REM and REELS techniques are comprehensively reviewed for the first time.

The book is written for materials scientists and graduate students and is entirely self-contained. FORTRAN source codes are provided for calculating crystal structure data and electron energy-loss spectra in different scattering geometries.This book is a comprehensive review of the theories, techniques and applications of reflection electron microscopy (REM), reflection high-energy electron diffraction (RHEED) and reflection electron energy-loss spectroscopy (REELS). The book is divided into three parts: diffraction, imaging and spectroscopy. The text is written to combine basic techniques with special applications, theories with experiments, and the basic physics with materials science, so that a full picture of RHEED and REM emerges. An entirely self-contained study, the book contains much invaluable reference material, including FORTRAN source codes for calculating crystal structures data and electron energy-loss spectra in different scattering geometries. This and many other features makes the book an important and timely addition to the materials science lilC.
