Book Description
Until comparatively recently, trace analysis techniques were in general directed toward the determination of impurities in bulk materials. Methods were developed for very high relative sensitivity, and the values determined were average values. Sampling procedures were devised which eliminated the so-called sampling error. However, in the last decade or so, a number of developments have shown that, for many purposes, the distribution of defects within a material can confer important new properties on the material. Perhaps the most striking example of this is given by semiconductors; a whole new industry has emerged in barely twenty years based entirely on the controlled distribu tion of defects within what a few years before would have been regarded as a pure, homogeneous crystal. Other examples exist in biochemistry, metallurgy, polyiners and, of course, catalysis. In addition to this of the importance of distribution, there has also been a recognition growing awareness that physical defects are as important as chemical defects. (We are, of course, using the word defect to imply some dis continuity in the material, and not in any derogatory sense. ) This broadening of the field of interest led the Materials Advisory Board( I} to recommend a new definition for the discipline, "Materials Character ization," to encompass this wider concept of the determination of the structure and composition of materials. In characterizing a material, perhaps the most important special area of interest is the surface.

Electron Probe Microanalysis

ISBN: 1483284638
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 463
Book Description
Electron Probe Microanalysis presents a collection of reviews on various aspects of electron probe microanalysis. This book discusses the model for quantitative electron probe analysis. Organized into 14 chapters, this book begins with an overview of the various kinds of microanalysis followed by a discussion of the advantages that can be derived from using the electron probe method. This text then examines the various applications of backscattered electron and specimen current methods for quantitative analysis. Other chapters consider the fundamental concepts for quantitative electron probe microanalysis utilizing pure elements as standards. This book discusses as well the absolute method of quantitative chemical analysis by emission X-ray spectroscopy. The final chapter deals with the main advantage of the Kossel technique in the study of the thermodynamic and mechanical characteristics of crystals. This book is a valuable resource for scientists and research workers. Non-specialists who need information on this excellent analytical tool will also find this book useful.
Medical Imaging Systems
Author: Andreas MaierPublisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319965204
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 263
Book Description
This open access book gives a complete and comprehensive introduction to the fields of medical imaging systems, as designed for a broad range of applications. The authors of the book first explain the foundations of system theory and image processing, before highlighting several modalities in a dedicated chapter. The initial focus is on modalities that are closely related to traditional camera systems such as endoscopy and microscopy. This is followed by more complex image formation processes: magnetic resonance imaging, X-ray projection imaging, computed tomography, X-ray phase-contrast imaging, nuclear imaging, ultrasound, and optical coherence tomography.
