Instrumentation for materials research

Richard S. Claassen
OpenURL
Show Topic
Techniques such as scanning and transmission electron microscopy, Auger spectroscopy, ESCA and others help us to relate the composition and structure of a material to its performance in a desired application.

Role of crystallography

Sidney C. Abrahams and Jerome B. Cohen
OpenURL
Show Topic
Contemporary crystallographic techniques for examining the structures of solids and their excitations and defects use generators ranging from new miniature x‐ray tubes to synchrotrons and pulsed‐neutron sources.

Processing materials with lasers

Edward M. Breinan, Conrad M. Banas, and Bernard H. Kear
OpenURL
Show Topic
The laser, a clean source of thermal energy with high power density, can melt metallic and ceramic alloys to produce novel and useful microstructures; it also adapts well to automated processing techniques.

Material analysis with ion beams

James F. Ziegler
OpenURL
Show Topic
Ion‐beam analysis, with its prime asset that the energetic projectile ions interact only with target nuclei, has provided quantitative information in many diverse investigations.
