Scanning Probe Microscopies Beyond Imaging

Beschreibung

The first book to focus on the use of SPMs beyond imaging to unravel physical and chemical properties of molecule based architectures across a wide range of length scales. SPMs enable the direct manipulation of objects with a nanoscale precision, thereby making it possible to nanopattern a surface or to cast light onto the nanomechanics of complex assemblies. Thus, they can provide crucial information for the optimisation of functional materials. This book reviews recent progress in the use of SPMs on such soft materials as polymers, with a particular emphasis on chirality, chemical discrimination, mechanical properties, tip-induced reactions and manipulations, as well as their nanoscale electronic and electrical properties. Detailing the practical application potential of this hot topic, this book is of great interest to specialists of wide-ranging disciplines, including physicists, chemists, materials scientists, spectroscopists, surface scientists, and engineers.
This first book to focus on the use of SPMs to actively manipulate molecules and nanostructures on surfaces goes way beyond conventional treatments of scanning microscopy merely for imaging purposes. It reviews recent progress in the use of SPMs on such soft materials as polymers, with a particular emphasis on chemical discrimination, mechanical properties, tip-induced reactions and manipulations, as well as their nanoscale electrical properties. Detailing the practical application potential of this hot topic, this book is of great interest to specialists of wide-ranging disciplines, including physicists, chemists, materials scientists, spectroscopy experts, surface scientists, and engineers.

Stimmen zu »Scanning Probe Microscopies Beyond Imaging«

"...this book will attract a lot of attention, not only from both beginners and more expert scientists interested in the fascinating world of SPM but also from scientists involved in a wide spectrum of disciplines including physics, chemistry, surface science, spectroscopy, materials science, and engineering." Small "... Das Buch ist sehr gut stukturiert, Inhaltsverzeichnis und Index ermöglichen einen schnellen Einstieg in die Materie. Die Abbildungen sind bis auf einige Ausnahmen exzellent, ebenso das Layout und Design... schließt eine Lücke in der ansonsten reichhaltigen Bücherwelt zum Thema." Angewandte (gleiche Rezension auch in International Edition) "...a welcome addition to the field...I am delighted to make it a part of my own personal collection." Journal of the American Chemical Society
