Publisher's Synopsis
Developed from a series of teaching workshops, this work is designed specifically for research workers from industry. It describes various spectroscopic and microscopic techniques for the analysis of surfaces and interfaces, to enable readers to learn the latest methods of interface characterization. The work takes a "problem-solving" approach, making it easy for the reader to apply the principles learned to their own research problems.;The work surveys analytical techniques and deals with composition analysis in terms of depth, position, chemical state and crystalline structure. Examples are discussed throughout the text.
