The volumes V, VI and VII will examine the physical and technical foundation for recent progress in applied scanning probe techniques. The chapters are written by leading researchers and application scientists from all over the world and from various industries to provide a broader perspective.

The main theme of this book is the exploration the underlying physical laws that permit the fabrication of nanometer-scale structures. As researchers attempt to fabricate nanometer-scale structures which do not exist per se, they must still employ the natural laws to fabricate them through processes such as self-assembly.

The volumes VIII, IX and X examine the physical and technical foundation for recent progress in applied scanning probe techniques. The field is progressing so fast that there is a need for a set of volumes every 12 to 18 months to capture latest developments. These volumes constitute a timely comprehensive overview of SPM applications.
