Advances in materials characterization. Vol. 15

This book presents state-of-the-art summaries on a wide range of techniques specifically used for the characterization of solid inorganic materials. Topics include surface spectroscopy, surface techniques, vibrational spectroscopy techniques, electron optical methods, acoustic and mechanical properties, general crystallographic techniques, and glass characterization studies. Reviews the theoretical basis of the specific techniques discussed and details their current research applications. The book constitutes the proceedings of the 1982 Conference on Advances in Materials Characterization
