Advances in Heat Transfer, 30 Advances in Heat Transfer, 30 J. P. Hartnett Providing information on heat transfer, this text includes the transfer properties found in porous media, laser speckle photography techniques, and Czochralski crystal growth practices. OL19859589W
Optical Characterization of Epitaxial Semiconductor Layers Optical Characterization of Epitaxial Semiconductor Layers Günther Bauer The last decade has witnessed an explosive development in the growth of expitaxial layers and structures with atomic-scale dimensions. This progress has created new demands for the characterization o… OL19892454W
Shaped Crystal Growth Shaped Crystal Growth Y. A. Tatarchenko This book is the first monograph that systematically describes macroscopic crystallization theory. The theory developed is based on the concept of stable growth and on the fundamental Lyapunov stabil… OL19901876W
Thermodynamic Basis of Crystal Growth Thermodynamic Basis of Crystal Growth Jacob H. Greenberg The properties of some inorganic materials (semiconductors, and high-Tc superconductors, in particular) are strongly dependent on the composition of the crystal, whereas the homogeneity range, or the… OL19906809W
Crystals Crystals Ichiro Sunagawa How do crystals nucleate and grow? Why and how do crystals form such a wide variety of morphologies, from polyhedral to dendritic and spherulitic forms? These are questions that have been posed sinc… OL8332131W
Electrocrystallization Electrocrystallization Alexander Milchev "The book is an up-to-date introduction to the fundamentals of the initial stages of Electrocrystallization, which are dominated by nucleation and growth of the first clusters of the new phase. It of… OL8701295W
