About this book
Presented in two parts, this first comprehensive overview addresses all aspects of energetic ion irradiation of polymers. Earlier publications and review articles concentrated on selected topics only. And the need for such a work has grown with the dramatic increase of research and applications, such as in photoresists, waveguides, and medical dosimetry, during the last decade.
The first part, Fundamentals of Ion-Irradiated Polymers, covers the physical, chemical and instrumental fundamentals; treats the specific irradiation mechanisms of low- and high-energy ions (including similarities and differences); and details the potential for future technological application. All the new findings are carefully analyzed and presented in a systematic way, while open questions are identified.
The second volume, Transport Processes in Ion-Irradiated Polymers, deals with transport processes in both unirradiated and irradiated polymers. As both a review and a stimulus, this work seeks to contribute substantially to the literature and advancement of polymeric devices, from both the low- and high-energy regimes.

Reviews
From the reviews:
"Irradiation of polymers with energetic particles, ions, and electromagnetic radiation is of interest to researchers in many areas of industrial chemistry. This text … deals specifically with the techniques of ion radiation of polymers and the role ion radiation plays in the generation of images that are vital to the area of microelectronics. … it may serve as a reference source for industrialists who are directly concerned with the application of ion radiation of polymers to microelectronics." (J. Kerry Thomas, Journal of the American Chemical Society, Vol. 128, 2006)
