Book description
The definitive resource for electroplating, now completely up to date
With advances in information-age technologies, the field of
electroplating has seen dramatic growth in the decade since the
previous edition of Modern Electroplating was published. This expanded
new edition addresses these developments, providing a comprehensive,
one-stop reference to the latest methods and applications of
electroplating of metals, alloys, semiconductors, and conductive
polymers.
With special emphasis on electroplating and electrochemical plating
in nanotechnologies, data storage, and medical applications, the Fifth
Edition boasts vast amounts of new and revised material, unmatched in
breadth and depth by any other book on the subject. It includes:
-
Easily accessible, self-contained contributions by over thirty
experts
-
Five completely new chapters and hundreds of additional
pages
-
A cutting-edge look at applications in nanoelectronics
-
Coverage of the formation of nanoclusters and quantum dots
using scanning tunneling microscopy (STM)
-
An important discussion of the physical properties of metal
thin films
-
Chapters devoted to methods, tools, control, and environmental
issues
-
And much more
A must-have for anyone in electroplating, including technicians,
platers, plating researchers, and metal finishers, Modern
Electroplating, Fifth Edition is also an excellent reference for
electrical engineers and researchers in the automotive, data storage,
and medical industries.
MORDECHAY SCHLESINGER, PhD, is a professor in the Department of
Physics at the University of Windsor, Ontario, Canada. He has
published over 120 research papers, holds four patents, and has served
as associate editor for the Journal of The Electrochemical Society,
Electrochemical and Solid-State Letters, and as coeditor of the
Canadian Journal of Physics. Schlesinger is coauthor, with Milan
Paunovic, of the first and second editions of Fundamentals of
Electrochemical Deposition and the previous edition of Modern
Electroplating (both by Wiley).
MILAN PAUNOVIC, PhD, had, until his recent retirement, worked on
electrochemical metal deposition for over four decades, most recently
in the Electrodeposition Technology Department at IBM's T. J. Watson
Research Center, and previously at the University of Pennsylvania,
Reynolds Metals, Kollmorgen, and Intel. In addition to coauthoring,
with Mordechay Schlesinger, the first and second editions of
Fundamentals of Electrochemical Deposition and the previous edition of
Modern Electroplating, Dr. Paunovic has edited symposia proceedings
for The Electrochemical Society, published forty-one research papers,
and holds seven patents.
