This
book covers various aspects of characterization of materials in the areas of
metals, alloys, steels, welding, nanomaterials, intermetallic, and surface
coatings. These materials are obtained by different methods and techniques like
spray, mechanical milling, sol-gel, casting, biosynthesis, and chemical
reduction among others. Some of these materials are classified according to
application such as materials for medical application, materials for industrial
applications, materials used in the oil industry and materials used like
coatings. The authors provide a comprehensive overview of structural
characterization techniques including scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray
diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Raman spectroscopy, image
analysis, finite element method (FEM), optical microscopy (OM), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy
(FTIR), differential thermal analysis (DTA), differential scanning calorimetry
(DSC), ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy (UV-Vis), infrared photo-thermal
radiometry (IPTR), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), thermogravimetry
analysis (TGA), thermo luminescence (TL), photoluminescence (PL), high resolution
transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), and radio frequency (RF). The book
includes theoretical models and illustrations of characterization properties-both
structural and chemical.

Dr. Ramiro Pérez Campos
studied his bachelor and master
degree in Physics at the National
Polytechnic Institute in México. He obtained his Ph. D. in Physics at the University of Alberta, Canada in
1983. He also carried out postdoctoral work at the KFA in Jülich, Germany. He
was awarded an Alexander Von Humboldt postdoctoral scholarship. He is the
author of more than 170 scientific papers, all of them related with the
applications of the transmission electron microscope in materials science. Dr.
Ramiro Pérez Campos has cultivated lines of research related with theoretical
simulations of images obtained by transmission electron microscopy (TEM).
Theoretical simulations have been based on electron diffraction using the
theory of Bethe, and the multilayer model. Currently, he
is Director of Centro de Física Aplicada y Tecnología Avanzada (CFATA) from
Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México (UNAM).
Dr. Antonio Contreras Cuevas studied his bachelor degree in Mechanical
Engineering from 1989 to 1994. He studied a master degree in Metallurgy and
Materials Science at Universidad Michoacana from 1995 to 1997. He obtained a
PhD in 2002 in Metallurgy and Materials Science from Universidad Nacional
Autónoma de México (UNAM). Currently is a pipeline materials researcher for Mexican
Petroleum Institute since 2003. He is a member of NACE and Mexican Materials
Society, and he belongs to National Research System. The main research areas
include stress corrosion cracking (SCC), root cause analysis (RCA), materials
characterization, synthesis and characterization of composite materials, and
pipeline integrity. He is author from more than 60 scientific papers related
with materials characterization by different techniques.
Dr.
Rodrigo A. Esparza Muñoz obtained
his Ph.D. in Metallurgy and Materials Science at the Universidad Michoacana de
San Nicolás de Hidalgo (UMSNH), México in 2007. He carried out two postdoctoral
stays, one of themin the Universidad Nacional Autónoma de Mexico (UNAM) and
the other one, in the University of Texas at San Antonio (UTSA). He is the
author of more than 50 scientific papers, most of them related with the characterization
of nanomaterials using high-resolution transmission electron microscopy and
aberration-corrected scanning transmission electron microscopy. Actually, he is researcher of Centro de Física
Aplicada y Tecnología Avanzada (CFATA) from
Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México (UNAM).
