Book Description
This book is about thin films; what they are, how they are prepared, how they are characterized, and what they are used for. The contents of this book not only showcase the diversity of thin films, but also reveals the commonality among the work performed in a variety of areas. The chapters in this volume are based on invited papers presented by prominent researchers in the field at a Symposium on "Thin Films: Preparation, Characterization, Applications" at the 221st National Meeting of the American Chemical Society held in San Diego, California. The coverage of the symposium was extensive; topics ranged from highly-ordered metal adlayers on well-defined electrode surfaces to bio-organic films on non-metallic nanoparticles. An objective of this book is for the readers to be able to draw from the experience and results of others in order to improve and expand the understanding of the science and technology of their own thin films systems.

Book Description
Treatise on Materials Science and Technology, Volume 24: Preparation and Properties of Thin Films covers the progress made in the preparation of thin films and the corresponding study of their properties. The book discusses the preparation and property correlations in thin film; the variation of microstructure of thin films; and the molecular beam epitaxy of superlattices in thin film. The text also describes the epitaxial growth of silicon structures (thermal-, laser-, and electron-beam-induced); the characterization of grain boundaries in bicrystalline thin films; and the mechanical properties of thin films on substrates. The ion beam modification of thin film; the use of thin alloy films for metallization in microelectronic devices; and the fabrication and physical properties of ultrasmall structures are also encompassed. Materials scientists and materials engineers will find the book invaluable.

Book Description
During this last year we were involved in a number of studies geared towards understanding the relationship between interfacial disorder and X-ray diffraction from superlattices. In addition, we have performed a number of physical properties studies in order to relate structure to physical properties. These studies include magnetism and superconducting studies in a variety of different thin film systems. A major development was the implementation of a structural refinement program capable of determining the important structural parameters in superlattices and thin films. This program is being supplied to many research groups for the study of related problems. We are currently devoted to detailed, comparative studies of magnetic samples prepared by Molecular Beam Epitaxy and sputtering. The unique facilities available to us not only allow preparing samples by the two different methods but also are capable of determining interfacial structure using in-situ characterization techniques such as Reflection High Energy Electron Diffraction (RHEED), Low Energy Electron Diffraction (LEED) and Auger Electron Spectroscopy (AES). We have developed a data acquisition system capable of acquiring electron diffraction in real time during growth. Part of the work done here is a good example of a collaboration between a University (UCSD), a national lab (ANL) and industrial organizations (Amoco, IBM).

Book Description
Comprising two volumes, Thermoelectrics and Its Energy Harvesting reviews the dramatic improvements in technology and application of thermoelectric energy with a specific intention to reduce and reuse waste heat and improve novel techniques for the efficient acquisition and use of energy. This volume, Modules, Systems and Applications in Thermoelectrics, discusses the practical, novel, and truly groundbreaking applications of thermoelectrics in a range of markets. The book details the U.S. interest in alternative energy and energy harvesting, specifically, the current efforts to use thermoelectric generators (TGs) to reduce emissions. Internationally, it expounds on the strong interest in Japan, Korea and Europe to incorporate TGs in cars to reduce fuel consumption and meet EU carbon dioxide emission targets; the European plans to build an isotopic powered thermoelectric generator; and India’s use of TG s in converting hot water from steel mills into electricity.
