Description

Explore the fascinating world of crystal growth far from thermodynamic equilibrium in this comprehensive guide from Springer's Surface Sciences series. This book examines homoepitaxy - thin film growth on crystalline substrates of identical material - as an ideal system for studying pure growth kinetics. Without misfit effects to complicate the picture, homoepitaxy reveals how elementary atomic processes generate diverse and intricate patterns. Using the well-studied Pt/Pt(111) system as a reference point, the text illustrates concepts through extensive Scanning Tunneling Microscopy imagery, making complex surface phenomena accessible to researchers and students. Perfect for physical chemists, materials scientists and anyone investigating crystal nucleation, growth mechanisms and pattern formation at the atomic scale.

Key Features

Focuses on homoepitaxy and thin film growth on crystalline substrates to demonstrate pure growth kinetics without misfit complications.

Uses the Pt/Pt(111) system as a thoroughly studied reference point for understanding atomic-scale growth processes.

Features numerous Scanning Tunneling Microscopy images that visualise pattern formation and atomic-level phenomena.

Part of Springer Series in Surface Sciences volume 42, providing authoritative coverage of crystal growth science.

Connects elementary atomic processes to macroscopic pattern formation for a complete understanding of surface chemistry.
