We review experimental and theoretical studies on the design and control of spatiotemporal
behavior in chemical systems. A wide range of approaches have been pursued to control …

Theoretical aspects and evolution of surface diffusion studies are discussed with an
emphasis on non-metallic adsorbates at metal surfaces. A survey of the existing literature is …

An updated fourth edition of the text that provides an understanding of chemical
transformations and the formation of structures at surfaces The revised and enhanced fourth …

Nanoclusters open fascinating opportunities for quantum engineering because quantum-
size effects become dominant in determining catalytic, 1-3 optical, 4 electronic, 5 and …

More than five years have passed since the first edition of this book was published. Surface
science is still a very active field of research, and the fact that the Nobel Prize 2007 in …

Light interacting with nanostructured metals excites the collective charge density fluctuations
known as surface plasmons (SP). Through excitation of the localized SP eigenmodes …

Plasmonics is a rapidly growing field spanning research and applications across chemistry,
physics, optics, energy harvesting, and medicine. Ultrafast photoemission electron …

Control of spatiotemporal chaos is one of the central problems of nonlinear dynamics. We
report on suppression of chemical turbulence by global delayed feedback using, as an …

Promoters are important in catalysis, but the atomistic details of their function and particularly
their role in reaction instabilities such as kinetic phase transitions and oscillations are often …

This paper reviews the current knowledge of the properties of ultrathin, well-ordered oxide,
nitride and oxynitride films grown on metal and metal alloy surfaces. Different modes of …
