This book gives an account of state-of-the-art investigations of properties and processes at solid-liquid interfaces with the same precision as it is standard in ultrahigh vacuum based surface science. Using combinations of in-situ and ex-situ experimental methods fundamental and relevant phenomena such as adsorption and desorption of ions and molecules, restructuring of surfaces, thin film and nanocluster growth, and electrochemical reactions on the micrometer scale are addressed. The overview includes a wide range of experimental techniques and examples of solid-liquid interfaces and aims at stimulating an expansion of this type of important Interface Science.

This first International Workshop on Auger Spectroscopy and Electronic Struc­ ture - IWASES 1, held in Giardini-Naxos, Sicily, Italy, grew out of a number of longstanding collaborations between the various Institutes of Physics of the University of Messina, namely the Institute of the Structure of Matter, the In­ stitute of Theoretical Physics and the Institute of General Physics, and groups in other European countries at the University of Liverpool, England, the Insti­ tute of Physical Chemistry, University of Munich, and the Fritz Haber Institute of the Max Planck Society, Berlin, FRG. This workshop was the first to be devoted solely to Auger electron spectroscopy. This initiative was motivated by the enormous evolution of the field within the last decade to a point where it now extends far beyond the mere application of this spectroscopy as an analytical tool to determine surface cleanliness and surface composition. In fact, the Auger process, which is a multi-electron process, and which leaves the sample in a doubly (or higher) ionized state, is an invaluable probe for investigating excited states and, in particular, electron (or hole) correlation effects. These correlation effects play an important role for many physical prop­ erties of matter such as magnetism, screening processes, and electron stimulated desorption (ESD), to name but a few.

Modern technologies increasingly rely on low-dimensional physics at interfaces and in thin-films and nano-structures. Surface science holds a key position in providing the experimental methods and theoretical models for a basic understanding of these effects. This book includes case studies and status reports about research topics such as: surface structure determination by tensor-LEED and surface X-ray diffraction; the preparation and detection of low-dimensional electronic surface states; quantitative surface compositional analysis; the dynamics of adsorption and reaction of adsorbates, e.g. kinetic oscillations; the characterization and control of thin-film and multilayer growth including the influence of surfactants; a critical assessment of the surface physics approach to heterogeneous catalysis.

Surface science has existed as a recognized discipline for more than 20 years. During this period, the subject has expanded in two important ways. On the one hand, the techniques available for studying surfaces, both experimental and theoretical, have grown in number and in sophistication. On the other hand, surface science has been applied to an increasing number of areas of technology, such as catalysis, semicon­ ductor processing, new materials development, corrosion prevention, adhesion and tribology. . There is, however, no sharp division between fundamental and applied surface science. New techniques can immediately be applied to technologically important problems. Improvements in understanding of fundamental phenomena such as epi­ taxial growth of one metal on another, or the bonding of hydrocarbons to metal sur­ faces, to name just two examples, have direct consequences for technology. Surface science has also become very much an interdisciplinary subject; physics, chemistry, materials science, chemical and electronical engineering all draw upon and contribute to surface science. The intimate relationship between principles and applications of surface science forms the theme of this proceedings volume. The contributions were all presented as invited lectures at an Australian-German Workshop on Surface Science held at Coogee Beach, Sydney, Australia, in December 1991. The contributors, all active surface scientists in their respective countries, were asked to highlight recent develop­ ments in their own areas of activity involving new techniques, advances in funda­ mental understanding or new applications in technology.
