Low Temperature Plasmas: Fundamentals, Technologies and Techniques

With its strong focus on the links between theory and experiment or technological process, this book presents the latest advances in our understanding of how plasmas behave. New contributions to this second edition cover dusty plasmas, cross-correlation spectroscopy, atmospheric pressure glow discharges, as well as applications in lightening, microelectronics, polymer surface modification, sterilization, biology and medicine. Straddling the boundaries between physics, chemistry and materials science, this is of interest to a wide community. From reviews of the first edition: "...it makes a highly valuable contribution to the subject area and will be accessible to scientists and engineers working in the field." ChemPhysChem
