Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Short description:
The theory of surface states underlies our knowledge of the behaviour of electrons at solid surfaces, which is of paramount importance in understanding the mechanisms by which solid-state devices operate and catalytic reactions proceed. Although the subject is viewed through the "theoretical eye" of a physicist, the topics are treated in an elementary fashion, so the book should also appeal to both theoretical and experimental surface scientists from chemistry, materials science, and electronic engineering.
MoreLong description:
The theory of surface states underlies our knowledge of the behaviour of electrons at solid surfaces, which is of paramount importance in understanding the mechanisms by which solid-state devices operate and catalytic reactions proceed. Although the subject is viewed through the "theoretical eye" of a physicist, the topics are treated in an elementary fashion, so the book should also appeal to both theoretical and experimental surface scientists from chemistry, materials science, and electronic engineering. The main features of the presentation are: its pedagogical, model-based approach, detailed step-by-step derivations of all the equations, smooth progression through the simple wave-function matching techniques to the more sophisticated Green-function methods and, finally, the historical theme, which traces the evolution of the subject, from its funding by the Nobel Laureate Igor Tamm in 1932, through the invention of the transistor in 1947 by Shockley, Bardeen and Brattain, to the recent developments.
'a welcome addition to the literature on Surface Science as it addresses the theoretical aspects of electronic surface states ... the authors have done an excellent job in presenting a complicated subject in a manner that is simple and easy to understand.'
Raj Persaud, York University, Physics in Canada, July 1993
