Principles and Applications of Ion Scattering Spectrometry

Surface Chemical and Structural Analysis

af J. Wayne (University of Houston) Rabalais

Ion scattering spectrometry, a powerful analytical tool used to determine the structure and composition of a substance, addresses critical problems in semiconductors, thin film growth, coatings, computer chips, magnetic storage devices, bioreactive surfaces, catalytic surfaces, and electrochemical surfaces (including the large battery industry).
