Practical Guide to Materials Characterization Practice-oriented
resource providing a hands-on overview of the most relevant
materials characterization techniques in chemistry, physics,
engineering, and more Practical Guide to Materials Characterization
focuses on the most widely used experimental approaches for
structural, morphological, and spectroscopic characterization of
materials, providing background, insights on the correct usage of
the respective techniques, and the interpretation of the results.
With a focus on practical applications, the work illustrates what
to use and when, including real-life examples showing which
characterization techniques are best suited for particular
purposes. Furthermore, the work covers the practical elements of
the analytical techniques used to characterize a wide range of
functional materials (both in bulk as well as thin film form) in a
simple but thorough manner. To aid in reader comprehension,
Practical Guide to Materials Characterization is divided into eight
distinct chapters. To set the stage, the first chapter of the book
reviews the fundamentals of materials characterization that are
necessary to understand and use the methods presented in the
ensuing chapters. Among the techniques covered are X-ray
diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, X-ray spectroscopy, electron
microscopies, magnetic measurement techniques, infrared
spectroscopy, and dielectric measurements. Specific sample topics
covered in the remaining seven chapters include: Bragg's Law, the
Von Laue Treatment, Laue's Equation, the Rotating Crystal Method,
the Powder Method, orientation of single crystals, and structure of
polycrystalline aggregates Classical theory of Raman scattering,
quantum theory of Raman spectroscopy, high-pressure Raman
spectroscopy, and surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy Basic
principles of XAS, energy referencing, XPS spectra and its
features, Auger Electron Spectroscopy (AES), and interaction of
electrons with matter Magnetization measuring instruments, the
SQUID magnetometer, and the advantages and disadvantages of
vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) With comprehensive and in-depth
coverage of the subject, Practical Guide to Materials
Characterization is a key resource for practicing professionals who
wish to better understand key concepts in the field and seamlessly
harness them in a myriad of applications across many different
industries.
