In alternating years, the Denver X-ray Conference turns its principal attention, through the choice of subjects for the plenary lectures, to various aspects of either X-ray fluorescence or dif fraction. This is a "fluorescence" year, and the...

Interest in structures with nanometer-length features has significantly increased as experimental techniques for their fabrication have become possible. The study of phenomena in this area is termed nanoscience, and is a research focus of chemists, pure...

This book is meant to provide a window on the rapidly growing body of theoretical studies of condensed phase chemistry. A brief perusal of physical chemistry journals in the early to mid 1980's will find a large number of theor- ical papers devoted to...

This book examines the new steps of success in the field of chemical and biochemical kinetics. Topics discussed include the activation energy of molecule and atom diffusion in bio-systems; mathematical modelling dependence of thermodynamic...

The modelling and the study of phase transition phenomena are capital issues as they have essential applications in material sciences and in biological and industrial processes. We can mention, e.g., phase separation in alloys, ageing of materials,...

Electrophoretic deposition (EPD) is attracting many researchers attention nowadays because of its numerous advantages, such as simple deposition apparatus, fast deposition rate, and the ease of deposition with a controlled thickness, compared to the...

The book focuses on the principles of electronic and magnetic properties of transition and inner transition metal ions/complexes. It is one of the essential and fundamental topics for graduate and undergraduate students, and it is also important for...

Scientists from the former Soviet Union share the results of their investigations into the phenomena and processes of chemical physics at the quantitative level. Topics of the 20 papers include the polymerization of fluoro(meth)acrylates used in fiber...

In Chapter One, the authors review the recent developments in the field of electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, discuss some of the challenges and compare EIS with the other relevant techniques. The effect of storage time without use (STWU) in the...
