This completely revised successor to the Handbook of Microscopy supplies in-depth coverage of all imaging technologies from the opticalto the electron and scanning techniques. Adopting a twofold approach, the book firstly presents the various technologies as such, before goingon to cover the materials class by class, analyzing how the different imaging methods can be successfully applied. It covers the latest developments in techniques, such as in-situ TEM, 3D imaging in TEM and SEM, as well as a broad range of material types, including metals,alloys, ceramics, polymers, semiconductors, minerals, quasicrystals, amorphous solids, among others. The volumes are divided betweenmethods and applications, making this both a reliable reference and handbook for chemists, physicists, biologists, materials scientists andengineers, as well as graduate students and their lecturers.

Report

"Undoubtedly, this is a valuable addition to any material laboratory for motivating researchers/students togain new ideas on using microscopy methods to fundamentally understand their materials and technologies." (Nanomaterials and Energy, 19 February 2013)
