    About this ebook

    * Expert, up-to-date guidance on the appropriate techniques of local chemical analysis
    * Comprehensive. This volume is an ideal starting point for material research and development, bringing together a number of techniques usually only found in isolation
    * Recent examples of the applications of techniques are provided in all cases


    Helping to solve the problems of materials scientists in academia and industry, this book offers guidance on appropriate techniques of chemical analysis of materials at the local level, down to the atomic scale. Comparisons are made between various techniques in terms of the nature of the probe employed. The detection limit and the optimum spatial resolution is also considered, as well as the range of atomic number that may be identified and the precision and methods of calibration, where appropriate.



    The Local Chemical Analysis of Materials is amply illustrated allowing the reader to easily see typical results. It includes a comparative table of techniques to aid selection for analysis and a table of acronyms, particularly valuable in this jargon-riddled area.

    J. W. Martin

    There's nothing better to me than a good story. Whether it's a book, movie, TV show or even a video game, I find it very easy to become completely engulfed in a good story. I've spent my life finding ways to share my own stories with any who care to read them. I've experimented with many different forms of writing, but have always come back to novels. Only recently have I made it my goal to convert myself from a "wannabe writer" to a "wannabe writer with a few published books."
