This review is from: Spectroscopy for Surface Science (Hardcover)
The book covers the gamut of spectroscopic techniques available to analyse an interface (surface) between two substances. The techniques are non-destructive. Often, the aim is to study the surface composition. This is especially true in the important case where one substance is a fluid, typically air, and the other substance is a solid. Do oxide layers form in such a situation, for example? Do molecules from the air clump onto the surface?Most of the cases considered have a subject that is flat. This enables spectroscopy with specular reflections, as opposed to diffuse reflections from rough surfaces. Plus, when you get specular reflections, you might also get refracted transmission inside the target substance. And possible the excitation of surface plasmons on the surface, for example. Under such circumstances, we get nice instances of applied electromagnetic theory.
