Characterization enables a microscopic understanding of the
fundamental properties of materials (Science) to predict their
macroscopic behaviour (Engineering). With this focus, Principles of
Materials Characterization and Metrology presents a comprehensive
discussion of the principles of materials characterization and
metrology. Characterization techniques are introduced through
elementary concepts of bonding, electronic structure of molecules
and solids, and the arrangement of atoms in crystals. Then, the
range of electrons, photons, ions, neutrons and scanning probes,
used in characterization, including their generation and related
beam-solid interactions that determine or limit their use, is
presented. This is followed by ion-scattering methods, optics,
optical diffraction, microscopy, and ellipsometry. Generalization
of Fraunhofer diffraction to scattering by a three-dimensional
arrangement of atoms in crystals leads to X-ray, electron, and
neutron diffraction methods, both from surfaces and the bulk.
Discussion of transmission and analytical electron microscopy,
including recent developments, is followed by chapters on scanning
electron microscopy and scanning probe microscopies. The book
concludes with elaborate tables to provide a convenient and easily
accessible way of summarizing the key points, features, and
inter-relatedness of the different spectroscopy, diffraction, and
imaging techniques presented throughout. Principles of Materials
Characterization and Metrology uniquely combines a discussion of
the physical principles and practical application of these
characterization techniques to explain and illustrate the
fundamental properties of a wide range of materials in a tool-based
approach. Based on forty years of teaching and research, this book
incorporates worked examples, to test the reader's knowledge with
extensive questions and exercises.
