"Trotz der behutsamen Ueberarbeiting besitzt das Buch in der heutigen Zeit noch seine hohe Aktualitaet und ist dem Einsteiger auf diesem Gebiet sowie dem erfahrenen Praktiker, sofern er es nicht schon kennt, gleichermassen zu empfehlen." --Berichte, vol. 74

This is the second, revised edition of a book that has already proved invaluable to a wide range of readers. Written by a scientist for scientists and technical people, it goes beyond the subject matter indicated by the title, filling the gap which previously existed in the available technical literature. It includes a wealth of information for physicists, chemists and engineers who need to know more about thin films for research purposes, or who want to use this special form of solid material to achieve a variety of application-oriented goals.
