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.
