This book is an outcome of the NATO institute on surface modification which was held in Trevi, 1981. Surface modification and alloying by ion, electron or laser

The current status of the science and technology related to coatings, thin films and surface modifications produced by directed energy techniques is assessed in

Materials and Processes for Surface and Interface Engineering, which has been written by experts in the fields of deposition technology and surface modification

This book is intended to help engineers analyze service condition and potential mechanisms of surface degradation. This will enable engineers select suitable ma
