Fundamental properties such as surface energy and surface stress are then linked to a universal systematization of surface structure and symmetry. The author includes key examples of surface chemistry and physics, such as the interplay between adsorbate and substrate chirality, amplification of chirality, chiral catalysis, and the influence of surface chirality upon optical and magnetic phenomena. The book also explores the chirality apparent in the electronic structure of graphene, topological insulators and half-metallic materials.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis important reference:\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eProvides an introduction to the fundamental concept of chirality\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eContains discussions of the chemical and physical consequences of surface chirality, including magnetic, electronic and optical properties in addition to molecular properties\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eOffers an account of the most current research needed to support growth in the field\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003eWritten for surface scientists, professionals in the field, academics, and students, \u003ci\u003eChirality at Solid Surfaces \u003c\/i\u003eis an essential resource that contains an overview of the fundamentals of surface chirality and reviews both the chemical and physical consequences. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e   \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDr. Stephen J. Jenkins,\u003c\/b\u003e leads the Surface Science group in the Department of Chemistry at Cambridge University, where he directs both experimental and computational research on the physical and chemical properties of metal surfaces. His broad interest in the complexities of intermolecular interactions at surfaces finds particular focus in the expression of chirality in two dimensions, and its implications for asymmetric chemistry. He has worked in surface science for the past twenty-five years, and has published over 140 papers on a variety of topics within that field. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublication Date: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e26 March 2018\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublisher: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWiley\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eImprint: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWiley\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eISBN-13: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9781118880128\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFormat: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHardback\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePage Count: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e384\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight (oz): \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e27.2\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Wiley","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44380820439180,"sku":"9781118880128","price":185.36,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9781118880128.jpg?v=1780238743","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9781118880128","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
