A Review: Ultrahigh-Vacuum Technology for Electron Microscopes provides information on the fundamentals of ultra-high vacuum systems. It covers the very subtle process that can help increase pressure inside the microscope (or inside any other ultra-high vacuum system) and the different behavior of the molecules contributing to this kind of process. Prof Yoshimura's book offers detailed information on electron microscope components, as well as UHV technology. This book is an ideal resource for industrial microscopists, engineers and scientists responsible for the design, operation and maintenance of electron microscopes. In addition, engineering students or engineers working with electron microscopes will find it useful. - Teaches how to incorporate diffusion pumps for UHV electron microscopy - Presents the work of an author who brings a lifetime of experience working on vacuum technology and electron microscopes

Foundations of Molecular-Flow Networks for Vacuum System Analysis is the only book that covers desorption, adsorption and outgassing in relation to molecular-flow networks. It will be beneficial for academics, students and industry personnel working in the field of ultra-high vacuums for designing the equipment/set-up and as a guide to understand the processes relating to vacuums. The book is fully supported with equations and case studies from industry. Vacuum technology is extensively used in large synchrotrons and other large accelerators, as well as in many other smaller industrial and scientific facilities. Hence, this book is a welcome addition to the literature. - Explains how to design, model and simulate vacuum systems to obtain satisfactory pressure distributions - Offers a practical description of molecular flow, providing techniques to design molecular flow networks of vacuum systems and processes - Explores equivalence with electrical components to help readers with simulation using free software such as LTSPICE

Auger electron spectroscopy is rapidly developing into the single most powerful analytical technique in basic and applied science.for investigating the chemical and structural properties of solids. Its ex plosive growth beginning in 1967 was triggered by the development of Auger analyzers capable of de tecting one atom layer of material in a fraction of a second. Continued growth was guaranteed firstly by the commercial availability of apparatus which combined the capabilities of scanning electron mi croscopy and ion-mill depth profiling with Auger analysis, and secondly by the increasing need to know the atomistics of many processes in fundamental research and engineering applications. The expanding use of Auger analysis was accompanied by an increase in the number of publications dealing with it. Because of the developing nature of Auger spectroscopy, the articles have appeared in many different sources covering diverse disciplines, so that it is extremely difficult to discover just what has or has not been subjected to Auger analysis. In this situation, a comprehensive bibliography is obviou-sly useful to those both inside and outside the field. For those in the field, this bibliography should be a wonderful time saver for locating certain references, in researching a particular topic, or when considering various aspects of instrumentation or data analysis. This bibliography not only provides the most complete listing of references pertinent to surface Auger analysis available today, but it is also a basis for extrapolating from past trends to future expectations.

Fundamentals of Vacuum Science and System Design for High and Ultra-High Vacuum, Volume 1: Introduction to Vacuum and Systems details the important practical considerations in design of vacuum systems for various vacuum deposition technologies. Topics covered include: Introduction to vaccum and end uses, molecular density in vacuum, molecular flow in various vacuum regimes, characteristics of gas composition at various molecular densities, general principles of gas-solid interactions, vacuum pump technology, pressure sensors, leak detection and the impact of fundamental design decisions and operating practices on vacuum system performance. The introductory sections are designed to introduce the reader to basic concepts in vacuum technology. More detailed sections provide fundamental descriptions of basic vacuum pumps and pumping mechanisms in current practice and provides insight into the various pros and cons for each approach. System design, assembly, maintenance, and trouble-shooting are reviewed in detail. This volume also describes a wide range of pressure measurement approaches, and includes several key characterization techniques, example applications on systems for rough vacuum, high vacuum and ultra-high vacuum, as well as trade-offs in system design, allowing for the reader to develop an understanding of all the elements required for a successfully designed, assembled, and operating system. - Covers vacuum pump technology, taking a system from atmosphere down to high or ultra-high vacuum - Discusses the fundamental descriptions of vacuum pumps and pumping mechanisms in current practice and provides insight into the various pros and cons for each approach - Provides an overview of practical vacuum system operating techniques that will ensure optimal performance and troubleshooting methods to identify system deficiencies
