From a device for measuring film thickness in vacuum, the quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) has in the past two decades evolved into a versatile instrument for analyzing soft matter at solid/liquid and solid/gas interfaces that found applications in diverse fields including the life sciences, material science, polymer research, and electrochemistry. As a consequence of this success, the QCM is now being used by scientists with a wide variety of backgrounds to study an impressive diversity of samples, with intricate data analysis methods being elaborated along the way. It is for these practitioners of the QCM that the book is written. It brings across basic principles behind the technique and the data analysis methods in sufficient detail to be educational and in a format that is accessible to anyone with an undergraduate level knowledge of any of the physical or natural sciences. These principles concern the analysis of acoustic shear waves and build on a number of fundamental physical concepts which many users of the technique do not usually come across. They have counterparts in optical spectroscopy, electrical engineering, quantum mechanics, rheology, and mechanics, making this book a useful educational resource beyond the QCM itself.  The main focus is the physics of QCM, but as the book describes the behavior of the QCM when exposed to films, droplets, polymer brushes, particles, vesicles, nanobubbles, and stick-slip, it also offers insight into the behavior of soft matter at interfaces in a more general sense. 410 0$aSoft and Biological Matter,$x2213-1736 606 $aAmorphous substances 606 $aComplex fluids 606 $aMaterials?Surfaces 606 $aThin films 606 $aChemistry, Physical and theoretical 606 $aPolymers 606 $aAcoustics 606 $aSoft and Granular Matter, Complex Fluids and Microfluidics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P25021 606 $aSurfaces and Interfaces, Thin Films$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Z19000 606 $aPhysical Chemistry$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/C21001 606 $aPolymer Sciences$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/C22008 606 $aAcoustics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P21069 615 0$aAmorphous substances. 615 0$aComplex fluids. 615 0$aMaterials?Surfaces. 615 0$aThin films. 615 0$aChemistry, Physical and theoretical. 615 0$aPolymers. 615 0$aAcoustics. 615 14$aSoft and Granular Matter, Complex Fluids and Microfluidics. 615 24$aSurfaces and Interfaces, Thin Films. 615 24$aPhysical Chemistry. 615 24$aPolymer Sciences. 615 24$aAcoustics. 676 $a549.68 700 $aJohannsmann$b Diethelm$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0792562 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910300432203321 996 $aThe Quartz Crystal Microbalance in Soft Matter Research$92525725 997 $aUNINA
