The first part of the book presents, at a tutorial level, the fundamental concepts and methods in surface lattice dynamics, and the theory of atom-surface interaction and inelastic scattering in their various approximations, up to the recent electron-phonon theory of helium atom scattering from conducting surfaces. The second part of the book, after introducing the experimentalist to He-atom spectrometers and the rich phenomenology of helium atom scattering from corrugated surfaces, illustrates the most significant experimental results on the surface phonon dispersion curves of various classes of insulators, semiconductors, metals, layered crystals, topological insulators, complex surfaces, adsorbates, ultra-thin films and clusters. The great potential of helium atom scattering for the study of atomic scale diffusion, THz surface collective excitations, including acoustic surface plasmons, and the future prospects of helium atom scattering are presented in the concluding chapters. The book will be valuable reading for all researchers and graduate students interested in dynamical processes at surfaces.Springer Series in Surface Sciences,0931-5195 ;63Surfaces (Physics)Interfaces (Physical sciences)Thin filmsAtomsPhysicsChemistry, Physical and theoreticalMaterials scienceMaterials—SurfacesSurface and Interface Science, Thin Filmshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P25160Atomic, Molecular, Optical and Plasma Physicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P24009Physical Chemistryhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/C21001Characterization and Evaluation of Materialshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Z17000Surfaces and Interfaces, Thin Filmshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Z19000Surfaces (Physics)Interfaces (Physical sciences)Thin films.Atoms.Physics.Chemistry, Physical and theoretical.Materials science.Materials—Surfaces.Surface and Interface Science, Thin Films.Atomic, Molecular, Optical and Plasma Physics.Physical Chemistry.Characterization and Evaluation of Materials.Surfaces and Interfaces, Thin Films.530.417Benedek Giorgioauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut464033Toennies J.
