‘...anything but boring. The book’s erudite and engaging presentation deftly weaves in the results of eminent scientists from Isaac Newton to Lars Onsager and sheds light on how disparate physical laws are glued together in contemporary theories. Molecular Forces and Self Assembly is best taken as a missive from one generation of soft-matter scientists to the next that there is still much to be questioned and understood about complex fluids.’

Principles of Multiscale Modeling

Electronic Thin-Film Reliability

Weinan E Princeton University, New Jersey

King-Ning Tu University of California, Los Angeles

Written by a leading contributor to the field, this book is the first to provide a unified treatment of the subject, covering, in a systematic way, the general principles of multiscale models, algorithms and analysis.

Simple illustrative examples ensure that technicalities do not prevent the reader from understanding key concepts.

Thin films are widely used in the electronic device industry. As the trend for miniaturization of electronic devices moves into the nanoscale domain, the reliability of thin films becomes an increasing concern. Building on the author’s previous book, Electronic Thin Film Science by Tu, Mayer and Feldman, and based on a graduate course at UCLA given by the author, this new book focuses on reliability science and the processing of thin films. Early chapters address fundamental topics in thin film processes and reliability, including deposition, surface energy and atomic diffusion, before moving onto systematically explain irreversible processes in interconnect and packaging technologies. Describing electromigration, thermomigration and stress migration, with a closing chapter dedicated to failure analysis, the reader will come away with a complete theoretical and practical understanding of electronic thin film reliability. Kept mathematically simple, with real-world examples, this book is ideal for graduate students, researchers and practitioners.

Contents: Preface; 1. Introduction; 2. Analytical methods; 3. Classical multiscale algorithms; 4. The hierarchy of physical models; 5. Examples of multi-physics models; 6. Capturing the macroscale behavior; 7. Resolving local events or singularities; 8. Elliptic equations with multiscale coefficients; 9. Problems with multiple time scales; 10. Rare events; 11. Some perspectives; Index.

Theory of Molecular Rydberg States M. S. Child Molecular Rydberg states have many unusual properties, lending themselves to a diverse range of experimental applications. This book is designed to unravel the mysteries of molecular Rydberg states that lie beyond the scope of accepted spectroscopic theories. It is the first single-authored text to focus on the application of multi-channel quantum defect theory (MQDT) and ab initio theory to this special class of molecular systems, introducing readers to novel theoretical techniques. The scattering techniques of MQDT are examined, along with a unified description of bound states and fragmentation dynamics. Connections with established spectroscopic theory are also described. The book concludes with an account of the spherical tensor and density matrix theories required for the interpretation of multi-photon experiments. While the main text focuses on physical principles and experimental applications, appendices are used to handle advanced mathematical detail.

In January 2011, the Materials Research Society (MRS) and Cambridge University Press entered into a partnership to produce MRS’s flagship publications–MRS Bulletin, Journal of Materials Research (JMR) and the MRS Online Proceedings Library (OPL)–and to develop new journals, books and online products encompassing the full range of materials science and engineering.

With the launch of MRS Communications in mid-2011, the first of these joint products came to fruition. An online-only ‘letters and prospectives’ journal, MRS Communications is designed to serve the fast-moving international materials research community with an exceptionally rapid review process, time-to-publication, and swift reach to a global audience. The first issue will publish in November 2011.

MRS is an international organization of almost 16,000 materials researchers from academia, industry and government, and a recognized leader in promoting the advancement of interdisciplinary materials research to improve the quality of life.
