A thorough exploration of the atomic structures and properties ofthe essential engineering interfaces--an invaluable resourcefor students, teachers, and professionals
The most up-to-date, accessible guide to solid-vapor,solid-liquid, and solid-solid phase transformations, thisinnovative book contains the only unified treatment of these threecentral engineering interfaces. Employing a simple nearest-neighborbroken-bond model, Interfaces in Materials focuses on metal alloysin a straightforward approach that can be easily extended to alltypes of interfaces and materials. Enhanced with nearly 300illustrations, along with extensive references and suggestions forfurther reading, this book provides:
* A simple, cohesive approach to understanding the atomicstructure and properties of interfaces formed between solid,liquid, and vapor phases
* Self-contained discussions of each interface--allowingseparate study of each phase transformation
* A comparative look at the different interfaces, includingatomic structure and crystallography; anisotropy, roughening, andmelting; interfacial stability and segregation; continuous andledge growth models; and atomistic modeling
* An analysis of nearest-neighbor broken-bond results againstthermodynamic and kinetic descriptions of the interfaces
* Problem sets at the end of each chapter, emphasizing the keyconcepts detailed in the text
Spanning the fields of chemical, electrical and computerengineering, materials science, solid-state physics, andmicroscopy, Interfaces in Materials bridges a major gap in theliterature of surface and interface science.

Howe presents a straightforward and intuitive approach to examine each type of interface (solid-vapor, solid-liquid, solid-solid) using a simple nearest-neighbor broken-bond model and to compare these results with those from more sophisticated many-body atomistic calculations. The atomistic treatments are then compared with thermodynamic and kinetic descriptions of the interfaces which are continuum treatments. The book mainly deals with metal atoms and utilizes the face-centered cubic crystal structure whenever possible. Most of the concepts discussed can be readily applied to other material systems including organics.
JAMES M. HOWE, PhD, is Associate Professor of Materials Science and Engineering at the University of Virginia. He is the recipient of numerous honors and awards for his research on transformation interfaces and electron microscopy, and his articles have appeared in such journals as Philosophical Magazine A, Acta Metallurgica et Materialia, and Ultramicroscopy.
