Surface Phonons [E-Book] / edited by Winfried Kress, Frederik W. de Wette.
In recent years substantial progress has been made in the detection of surface phonons owing to considerable improvements in inelastic rare gas scattering tech niques and electron energy loss spectroscopy. With these methods it has become possible to measure surface vibrations in a wide energy rang...
