Combinatorial Materials Synthesis (No Series)

Pioneered by the pharmaceutical industry and adapted for the purposes of materials science and engineering, the combinatorial method is now widely considered a watershed in the accelerated discovery, development, and optimization of new materials. Combinatorial Materials Synthesis reveals the gears behind combinatorial materials chemistry and thin-film technology, and discusses the prime techniques involved in synthesis and property determination for experimentation with a variety of materials. Funneling historic innovations into one source, the book explores core approaches to synthesis and rapid characterization techniques for work with combinatorial materials libraries.Ichiro Takeuchi is the author of 'Combinatorial Materials Synthesis (No Series)', published 2003 under ISBN 9780824741198 and ISBN 0824741196.
