Inhaltsangabe

The goal of this book is to provide a general overview of the rapidly developing field of novel scanning probe microscopy (SPM) techniques for characterization of a wide range of functional materials, including complex oxides, biopolymers, and semiconductors. Many recent advances in condensed matter physics and materials science, including transport mechanisms in carbon nanostructures and the role of disorder on high temperature superconductivity, would have been impossible without SPM. The unique aspect of SPM is its potential for imaging functional properties of materials as opposed to structural characterization by electron microscopy. Examples include electrical transport and magnetic, optical, and electromechanical properties. By bringing together critical reviews by leading researchers on the application of SPM to to the nanoscale characterization of functional materials properties, this book provides insight into fundamental and technological advances and future trends in key areas of nanoscience and nanotechnology.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

Novel scanning probe microscopy (SPM) techniques are used for the characterization of local materials functionalities ranging from chemical reactivity and composition to mechanical, electromechanical, and transport behaviors. In this comprehensive overview, special emphasis is placed on emerging applications of spectroscopic imaging and multifrequency SPM methods, thermomechanical characterization, ion-conductance microscopy, as well as combined SPM-mass spectrometry, SPM-patch clamp, and SPM-focused X-ray applications. By bringing together critical reviews by leading researchers on the application of SPM to the nanoscale characterization of functional materials properties, Scanning Probe Microscopy of Functional Materials provides insight into fundamental and technological advances and future trends in key areas of nanoscience and nanotechnology. Key Features: •Serves the rapidly developing field of nanoscale characterization of functional materials properties •Covers electrical, electromechanical, magnetic, and chemical properties of diverse materials including complex oxides, biopolymers, and semiconductors •Focuses on recently emerging areas such as nanoscale chemical reactions, electromechanics, spin effects, and molecular vibrations •Combines theoretical aspects with applications ranging from fundamental physical studies to device characterization
