The International Edition of Introduction to Optical Mineralogy provides
comprehensive coverage of the optical properties of minerals. It describes
in detail more than 125 common rock-forming minerals and a selection of
ore minerals. Revised chapters on optical theory discuss the petrographic
microscope, the nature and properties of light, the behaviour of light
in isotropic and anisotropic materials, and uniaxial and biaxial anisotropic
optics. |

Basic
Inorganic Chemistry, 3rd Edition
by F. Albert Cotton, Geoffrey Wilkinson, Paul L. Gaus
Hardcover from Wiley
ISBN: 0471505323
Explains the basics of inorganic chemistry with a primary emphasis
on facts; then uses the student's growing factual knowledge as a foundation
for discussing the important principles of periodicity in structure, bonding
and reactivity. New to this updated edition: improved treatment of atomic
orbitals and properties such as electronegativity, novel approaches to
the depiction of ionic structures, nomenclature for transition metal compounds,
quantitative approaches to acid-base chemistry, Wade's rules for boranes
and carboranes, the chemistry of major new classes of substances including
fullerenes and silenes plus a chapter on the inorganic solid state. |

Microstructural
Characterization of Materials
by David Brandon, Wayne D. Kaplan
Paperback from Wiley
ISBN: 0470027851
Microstructural characterization is usually achieved by allowing some
form of probe to interact with a carefully prepared specimen. The most
commonly used probes are visible light, X-ray radiation, a high-energy
electron beam, or a sharp, flexible needle. These four types of probe form
the basis for optical microscopy, X-ray diffraction, electron microscopy,
and scanning probe microscopy.
Microstructural Characterization of Materials, 2nd Edition is
an introduction to the expertise involved in assessing the microstructure
of engineering materials and to the experimental methods used for this
purpose. Similar to the first edition, this 2nd edition explores the methodology
of materials characterization under the three headings of crystal structure,
microstructural morphology, and microanalysis. The principal methods of
characterization, including diffraction analysis, optical microscopy, electron
microscopy, and chemical microanalytical techniques are treated both qualitatively
and quantitatively. An additional chapter has been added to the new edition
to cover surface probe microscopy, and there are new sections on digital
image recording and analysis, orientation imaging microscopy, focused ion-beam
instruments, atom-probe microscopy, and 3-D image reconstruction. As well
as being fully updated, this second edition also includes revised and expanded
examples and exercises, with a solutions manual available at http://develop.wiley.co.uk/microstructural2e/
Microstructural Characterization of Materials, 2nd Edition will
appeal to senior undergraduate and graduate students of material science,
materials engineering, and materials chemistry, as well as to qualified
engineers and more advanced researchers, who?will find the book a useful
and comprehensive general reference source. |

Microscale
Inorganic Chemistry: A Comprehensive Laboratory Experience
by Zvi Szafran, Ronald M. Pike, Mono M. Singh
Hardcover from Wiley
Media Published: 2008-
ISBN: 0471619965
This text is intended to provide students with instruction and valuable
laboratory experience in the often neglected area of inorganic chemistry.
Divided into four main parts, the book covers chemistry of the main group
elements, chemistry of the transition metals, organometallic chemistry,
and bioinorganic chemistry. Recognizing the high cost of materials, difficulties
in waste disposal, and dangers of toxicity, the authors have adopted a
``microscale'' approach to experiments in the book, thereby also reducing
the time students spend in preparation. With over 45 experiments, Microscale
Inorganic Chemistry incorporates the use of a broad sampling of elements
and also covers such topics as laboratory safety, equipment, report writing,
and literature searching. |

X-Ray
Diffraction
by B. E. Warren
Paperback from Dover Publications
ISBN: 0486663175
This rigorous graduate-level
introduction stresses modern applications to nonstructural problems such
as temperature vibration effects, order-disorder phenomena, crystal imperfections,
the structure of amorphous materials, and the diffraction of x-rays in
perfect crystals. Relevant problems at chapter ends. Six Appendixes include
tables of values. Bibliographies. 146 illustrations. |
