Scanning Tunneling Microscopy III

This book provide a unique introduction to the theory of
scanning tunneling microscopy and related scanning probe
methods. It is written by experts who have developed the
theoretical foundations for understanding the contrast
mechanisms involved in the various local probe methods. An
overview of the different theoretical approaches is
presented which will be helpful for every theorist starting
in this field. On the other hand, the implications fo the
theoretical results are discussed in detail. Therefore, this
book will serve as a most useful guide for experimentalists
as wll, facilitating the interpretation of their data.
