However, as manufacturing devices become increasingly smaller, the use of a directed-energy ion beam is finding novel industrial applications that require the custom tailoring of new materials and devices, including magnetic storage devices, photonics, opto-electronics, and molecular transport. Engineering Thin Films and Nanostructures with Ion Beams offers a thorough narrative of the recent advances that make this technology relevant to current and future applications. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eFeaturing internationally recognized researchers, the book compiles their expertise in a multidimensional source that: \u003cli\u003eHighlights the mechanisms and visual evidence of the effects of single-ion impacts on metallic surfaces\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eConsiders how ion-beam techniques can help achieve higher disk-drive densities \u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eIntroduces gas-cluster ion-beam technology and reviews its precedents\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eExplains how ion beams are used to aggregate metals and semiconductors into nanoclusters with nonlinear optical properties\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eAddresses current challenges in building equipment needed to produce nanostructures in an industrial setting \u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eExamines the combination of ion-beam techniques, particularly with physical vapor deposition \u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eDelineates the fabrication of nanopillars, nanoflowers, and interconnected nanochannels in three dimensions by using atomic shadowing techniques \u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eIllustrates the production of nanopores of varying dimensions in polymer films, alloys, and superconductors using ion-beam irradiation\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eShows how fingerprints can be made more reliable as forensic evidence by recoil-mixing them into the substrate using ion beams \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eFrom the basics of the ion-beam modification of materials to state-of-the-art applications, Engineering Th\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Emile Knystautas\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0367393050\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780367393052\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e CRC Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/19\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 592\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.45lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 5.90w x 1.20d","brand":"Emile Knystautas","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48447724126463,"sku":"9780367393052","price":94.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_dc1ae177-3c52-4e57-98d7-cc26cd6342f6.jpg?v=1777234381","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/engineering-thin-films-and-nanostructures-emile-knystautas-9780367393052","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
