In eight volumes,Surface and Interface Science covers all fundamental aspects and offers a comprehensive overview of this research area for scientists working in the field, as well as an introduction for newcomers.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Klaus Wandelt is currently Professor Emeritus at the University of Bonn, Germany, where he was also Director of the Institute of Physical and Theoretical Chemistry until 2010. He is a Guest Professor at the Universities of Wroclaw, Poland, and Rome, Tor Vergata, Italy. He received his Ph.D. on electron spectroscopy of alloy surfaces in 1975, and qualified as a professor in 1981. Since then his research focuses on fundamental aspects of the physics and chemistry of metal surfaces under ultrahigh vacuum conditions and in electrolytes, on the atomic structure of amorphous materials, and, more recently, on processes at surfaces of plants.
Topics covered:
Adsorption of Large Organic Molecules
Chirality of Adsorbates
Adsorption on Semiconductor Surfaces
Adsorption on Oxide Surfaces
Oscillatory Surface Reactions
Statistical Surface Thermodynamics
Theory of the Dynamics at Surfaces
Atomic and Molecular Manipulation
