Author J. Wayne Rabalais, the world’s leading expert in ion scattering spectrometry, recognizes both the pedagogic and research needs of such a text and divides his work accordingly. Chapters 1 through 5 address senior undergraduates and beginning graduate students in chemical physics and include figures and illustrative diagrams intended to exemplify the discussions. Chapters 6 through 9 comprise material on the brink of current research and contain specific references to other sources at the end of each; further, chapter 10 is a bibliography of ion scattering publications. Topics covered include:
-Introductory, theoretical, and experimental aspects of ion
scattering
-General features and structural analysis
-The recent technique of scattering and recoiling imaging
spectrometry
-Examples of structural analysis
-Ion-surface charge exchange phenomena
-Hyperthermal ion-surface interactions
Engineers, researchers, professors, and postdoctoral associates involved in surface analysis, surface science, and studies of surfaces of materials will find Rabalais’ incomparable study a seminal moment in the advance of ion scattering spectrometry.
