This volume represents 27 peer-reviewed papers presented at the ICOP 2013 symposium which will help conservators and curators recognise problems and interpret visual changes on paintings, which in turn give a more solid basis for decisions on the treatment of these paintings. Th…
The self-assembly of large organic molecules has become a vividly explored and interdisciplinary field in science. One major goal is the tailored fabrication of highly ordered, molecular networks, which are stabilized on a metal surface. Metalloporphyrins receive particular atte…
"This book, "Integrated Chemical Microsensor Systems in CMOS Technology," provides a comprehensive treatment of the highly interdisciplinary field of CMOS chemical microsensor systems. It is targeted at scientists and engineers who are interested in gaining an introduction to th…
'Soft matter may, as Roberto Piazza puts it, be the stuff of dreams, but it is also the stuff of life. That is what makes this book so engaging - because it shows the ingenuity that both nature and humankind have invested in the bendy, stretchy, fragile, tough and adaptable subs…
Emulsions are generally made out of two immiscible fluids like oil and water, one being dispersed in the second in the presence of surface-active compounds. They are used as intermediate or end products in a huge range of areas including the food, chemical, cosmetic, pharmaceuti…
The current work consists of nine contributions describing recent progress in the interdisciplinary of Nanoscience, which involves physics, chemistry, engineering, biology and medicine and one essay outlining some important historical and socioeconomic factors pertaining to rece…
Provides practical understanding of the laser surface treatment process, highlights both applications and limitations of laser induced thermal stresses, and provides practical solutions for daily surface treatment problems.
This is the third volume in a series of books on selected topics in Nanoscale Science and Technology based on lectures given at the well-known Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare (INFN) schools of the same name. The present set of notes stems in particular from the participati…
In the nearly 20 years of Kelvin probe force microscopy an increasing interest in the technique and its applications has developed. This book gives a concise introduction into the method and describes various experimental techniques. Surface potential studies on semiconductor ma…
The AlInGaN and ZnO materials systems have proven to be one of the scientifically and technologically important areas of development over the past 15 years, with applications in UV/visible optoelectronics and in high-power/high-frequency microwave devices. The pace of advances i…
