Scanning Probe Microscopy

Reviews / Votes

From the reviews:

"This book provides a nice and clearly written introduction to scanning probe microscopy (SPM) . . It addresses a large audience that ranges from high school teachers to undergraduates to graduate students and post-docs in physics and biology." (opn - Optics & Photonics News, Vol. 16 (9), 2005)

"In this book, the authors aim to give a general introduction to SPM and highlight some of the many applications of this technique. . the book succeeds in conveying the wide range of SPM techniques and their applications in an enthusiastic manner. . it is well referenced and will serve as a good starting point for further studies. However, it will be of most use to researchers and students with a particular interest in SFM and MFM." (Steven R Schofield, The Physicist, Vol. 41 (3), May/June, 2004)

"The book is well written and well laid out, providing a good, logical progression from one subject area to the next. Generally, a good balance between theory and experiment is struck, with an appropriate number of quite beautiful images. . References are plentiful and appropriate . . the book's sub-title The Lab on a Tip is entirely appropriate. I thoroughly recommend this book to anyone who is interested in applying any SPM technique . . (Dr. M. Salt, Contemporary Physics, Vol. 45 (6), 2004)
