Thin Film Deposition Principles and Practice

Thin film deposition is a broad and burgeoning field, with applications ranging from razor blade coatings to quantum-well lasers. However, much of the available thin film literature is based on empirical knowledge, and focuses only on specific processes or applications. This volume rectifies that situation, offering a complete description od the theory and technology of thin film deposition. The book's broad perspective gives readers the tools to objectively evaluate and choose the appropriate thin film process for a specific application. This indispensable volume also includes a complete list of symbols and an extensive index.Smith, Donald L. is the author of 'Thin Film Deposition Principles and Practice', published 1995 under ISBN 9780070585027 and ISBN 0070585024.
