  • Sand and Silicon

    Science that Changed the World

    by Denis McWhan ...
    This is a story about sand and how science and silicon changed our lives. Over the last century, science taught us how to take this most common material and create the products on which we depend. It allows us to determine the atomic structure of materials and to grow novel, new materials atomic layer by atomic layer. The principles of thermodynamics are used to transform sand into ultra pure ... Read more

  • Optical Diagnostics for Thin Film Processing

    by Irving P. Herman ...
    This volume describes the increasing role of in situ optical diagnostics in thin film processing for applications ranging from fundamental science studies to process development to control during manufacturing. The key advantage of optical diagnostics in these applications is that they are usually noninvasive and nonintrusive. Optical probes of the surface, film, wafer, and gas above the wafer are ...

  • Evanescent Waves in Optics

    An Introduction to Plasmonics

    by Angela M. Guzman, Mario Bertolotti, Concita Sibilia ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    This monograph provides an introductory discussion of evanescent waves and plasmons, describes their properties and uses, and shows how they are fundamental when operating with nanoscale optics. Far field optics is not suitable for the design, description, and operation of devices at this nanometre scale. Instead one must work with models based on near-field optics and surface evanescent waves. ... Read more

  • Optimised Projections for the Ab Initio Simulation of Large and Strongly Correlated Systems

    by David D. O'Regan ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    Density functional theory (DFT) has become the standard workhorse for quantum mechanical simulations as it offers a good compromise between accuracy and computational cost.However, there are many important systems for which DFT performs very poorly, most notably strongly-correlated materials, resulting in a significant recent growth in interest in 'beyond DFT' methods. The widely used DFT+U ... Read more
