Materials Science and Technology A Comprehensive Treatment Edited by R.W. Cahn, P. Haasen, E.J. Kramer The 18 volume series "Materials Science and Technology" is the first in-depth, topic-oriented reference work devoted to this growing interdisciplinary field. A compendium of current, state-of-the-art information, it covers the most important classes of materials: metals, ceramics, glasses, polymers, semiconductors, and composites. Each volume deals with properties, processing, applications, or general phenomena associated with these materials. Edited by internationally renowned figures in materials science, this series is sure to establish itself as a seminal work. Volume 2A: This is the first of a two-part volume focusing on the principal analytical techniques for characterizing metal alloys, semiconductors, polymers and ceramics. Topics included are: electron diffraction and transmission electron microscopy ? analytical electron microscopy ? scanning electron microscopy ? X-ray diffraction ? light optical microscopy ? atomic spectroscopy ? thermoanalytical methods ? application of synchrotron X-radiation to problems in materials science ? X-ray fluorescence analysis ? polymer molecular structure determination.
