  • Electron Tunneling in Chemistry

    • 1st Edition
    • Volume 30
    • R.F. Khairutdinov + 2 more
    • English
    In Volume 30, an attempt is made to consider comprehensively both theoretical and experimental data that have been obtained to date on electron tunneling reactions involving chemical compounds of various classes, and to discuss the role played by these reactions in different areas of chemistry. The discussion of the above problem is preceded by a review of data on tunneling phenomena in nuclear physics, atomic physics, solid-state physics, as well as on the tunneling effects in chemistry that go beyond the framework of the main subject of this monograph. This review is included to acquaint the reader with the role of tunneling phenomena in physics and chemistry as a whole, to show how diversified the kingdom of tunneling phenomena is, and to see more distinctly the similarities and the differences between electron tunneling in chemical reactions and other tunnel phenomena.

  • Progress in Optics

    • 1st Edition
    • Volume 27
    • English
    Progress in Optics is a well-established series of volumes of review articles dealing with theoretical and applied optics and related subjects. Widely acclaimed by numerous reviewers as representing an authoritative and up-to-date source of information in all branches of optics, the series continues to fulfil a genuine need within the scientific community. Articles are contributed by leading scientists (including two Nobel Prize winners) chosen by the Editor, with the advice of an international panel of experts constituting the Editorial Advisory Board. Many of the articles appearing in these volumes have since been established as basic references in their respective fields.

  • Solid State Ionics

    • 1st Edition
    • Volume 7
    • C. Julien + 1 more
    • English
    In recent years Solid State Ionics and Solid State Microbatteries have attracted considerable interest due to the important role which they may play in the future of microelectronics and eventually in other fields of energy storage. This volume presents papers on the theory, experiments and applications in this field including: Solid state microbatteries; Thin films solid state batteries; Fast ion conduction; Intercalation and lattice dynamics in layered materials; Electrochromes; Solid state diffusion; and Microsensors.

  • Laser Microfabrication
