Physical Methods of Chemistry, Investigations of Surfaces and Interfaces

Part of a multi-volume reference work which explores the important methods of instrumental chemical analysis, measurement and control. The contributors offer descriptions of the value, potential and limitation of each respective technique.
Each volume of this series heralds profound changes in both the perception and practice of chemistry. This edition presents the state of the art of all important methods of instrumental chemical analysis, measurement and control. Contributions offer introductions together with sufficient detail to give a clear understanding of basic theory and apparatus involved and an appreciation of the value, potential and limitations of the respective techniques. The emphasis of the subjects treated is on method rather than results, thus aiding the investigator in applying the techniques successfully in the laboratory.
