Quantum Physics in the Nanoworld

Solid Surfaces, Interfaces and Thin Films examines both experimental and theoretical aspects of surface, interface and thin film physics. Coverage of magnetic thin films has been expanded, and now includes giant magnetoresistance and the spin-transfer torque mechanism.

This book covers essential aspects of non-relativistic quantum physics up to the quantization of fields, describing modern experiments for the purpose of foundation of the theory and in relation to recent applications. Includes more than 40 example problems.

This book emphasises both experimental and theoretical aspects of surface, interface and thin-film physics. Because of their importance in modern information technology and nanostructure research, particular emphasis is paid to electronic surface and interface states, semiconductor space charge layers and heterostructures.
