Hardcover. Condición: As New. Leichte Kratzer / Abnutzungen / Druckstellen. Writing a textbook is a significant endeavor, requiring nearly two years of dedicated effort. My motivation stemmed from three key sources. First, the increasing pressure from our German administration on research institutions to focus on politically mandated five-year plans diverted attention from actual research. The challenge of writing a textbook helped me maintain my integrity as a scientist and provided an escape from this pressure. Second, I aimed to understand transport processes at the solid/electrolyte interface using concepts developed for solid surfaces in vacuum. These concepts create logical links between the properties of individual atoms and larger atomic ensembles, but adapting them to the solid/electrolyte interface proved challenging. A major hurdle was the differing meanings of terms like surface tension in surface physics and electrochemistry, along with the fact that identical quantities often have different names in the two fields. I was motivated by the challenge of bridging these two worlds. Consequently, this volume distinctly addresses surfaces in vacuum and in an electrolyte side-by-side, highlighting their connections. The final source of motivation emerged during the writing process itself.

Buch. Condición: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Writing a textbook is an undertaking that requires strong motivation, strong enough to carry out almost two years of solid work in this case. My motivation arose from three sources. The first was the ever-increasing pressure of our German administration on research institutions and individuals to divert time and attention from the pursuit of research into achieving politically determined five-year plans and milestones. The challenge of writing a textbook helped me to maintain my integrity as a scientist and served as an escape. A second source of motivation lay in my attempt to understand transport pr- esses at the solid/electrolyte interface within the framework of concepts developed for solid surfaces in vacuum. These concepts provide logical connections between the properties of single atoms and large ensembles of atoms by describing the physics on an ever-coarser mesh. The transfer to the solid/electrolyte interface proved nontrivial, the greatest obstacle being that terms such as surface tension denote different quantities in surface physics and electrochemistry. Furthermore, I came to realize that not infrequently identical quantities and concepts carry diff- ent names in the two disciplines. I felt challenged by the task of bringing the two worlds together. Thus a distinct feature of this volume is that, wherever approp- ate, it treats surfaces in vacuum and in an electrolyte side-by-side. The final motivation unfolded during the course of the work itself.

It is unique in its attempt to treat the physics of surfaces, thin films and interfaces, surface chemistry, thermodynamics, statistical physics and the physics of the solid/electrolyte interface in an integral manner, rather than in separate compartments. The Physics of Surfaces and Interfaces functions as a handbook for the researcher as well as a study-text for graduate students in physics or chemistry with special interest in the surface sciences, material science, or the nanosciences. Readers will likewise appreciate the wide range of topics treated, each supported by extensive references. Graduate students will benefit from the elementary introductions to experimental techniques and the clear presentations of the theory behind the techniques and the phenomena. Wherever possible, physical concepts are emphasized and the mathematical notation kept to a minimum; the written explanations are supported by 350 graphs and illustrations.Springer-Verlag KG, Sachsenplatz 4-6, 1201 Wien 660 pp. Englisch.
