Applied Surface Science covers topics contributing to a better understanding of applications of surfaces, interfaces, thin films
and other nanostructures. The journal is concerned with scientific research on the atomic and molecular level of properties, determined
with multiple surface analytical techniques, as well as the processing and application of these structures.
Processes include deposition
and growth, oxidation and nitridation, surface and interface reactions, in general, as well as surface modification by directed energy
deposition (lasers, ion or electron beams) or other techniques such as plasmas.
Important subject areas include (opto)-electronic
materials, bio-compatible materials and chemical, physical and mechanical processes at well-defined surfaces and interfaces, e.g., the
processes occurring in catalysis, corrosion and wear. However, papers with purely catalysis, corrosion and/or electrochemistry focus
are considered to be more suitable for a topical journal where they find a more dedicated audience.
