Description
Techniques of Vacuum Ultraviolet Spectroscopy was first published in 1967. In the three decades since, the techniques
associated with vacuum ultraviolet spectroscopy have been greatly expanded. Originally published as two volumes in the serial "Experimental
Methods in the Physical Sciences,"
Vacuum Ultraviolet Spectroscopy combines in one paperback volume information on the
many advances in vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) research. In addition, the book provides students and researchers with concise reviews of the
important aspects of designing experiments in the VUV region.
This is the only comprehensive treatise describing the use of synchrotron
and other light sources for research, along with the new technologies in optical elements, multilayers, mirror coatings, soft x-ray zone
plates, VUV detectors, interferometric spectrometers, and subjects such as spectromicroscopy, lithography, and photon-induced fluorescence.
Vacuum Ultraviolet Spectroscopy is an ideal handbook both for the beginner and for the experienced researcher in any
field requiring the use of VUV radiation.
Audience:
Graduate students and scientists in the fields of optics, surface analysis of materials, and atomic and molecular physics.
