Passivation of metals and semiconductors, and properties of thin oxide layers : a selection of papers from the 9th International Symposium, Paris, France, 27 June-1 July 2005 / edited by Philippe Marcus and Vincent Maurice.
Passivation of Metals and Semiconductors, and Properties of Thin Oxide Layers contains a selection of papers presented at PASSIVITY-9, the 9th International Symposium on the Passivation of Metals and Semiconductors and the Properties of Thin Oxide Layers, which was held in Paris, 27 June - 1 July, 2005. One hundred and twelve peer-reviewed manuscripts have been included. The book covers all the fundamental and applied aspects of passivity and provides a relevant and updated view of the advances and new trends in the field. It is structured in ten sections: & bull; Growth, (Nano)structure and Composition of Passive Films & bull; Passivity of Semiconductors & bull; Electronic Properties of Passive Films & bull; Passivity Issues in Biological Systems & bull; Passivity in High-Temperature Water & bull; Mechanical Properties of Passive Films, & bull; Passivity Issues in Stress Corrosion Cracking and Tribocorrosion & bull; Passivity Breakdown and Localized Corrosion & bull; Modeling and Simulation & bull; Surface Modifications and Inhibitors (for Improved Corrosion Resistance and/or Adhesion).
