Course Objective	本課程介紹各種分析材料表面性質的方法。藉著利用光子、電子、原子、或離子與材料表面的物理或化學作用，來獲得有關材料表面的組成、結構、化學鍵結、電子組態於表面形貌等訊息。所要介紹的表面分析儀器包括；X光電子光譜儀(XPS)、歐傑電子光譜儀（AES）、低能電子繞射儀(LEED)、電子穿隧掃描儀(STM)、表面振動光譜儀(surface vibrational spectroscopy)、程式控溫脫附法(TPD)及真空技術。 The course introduces various surface analysis methods, including XPS, AES, LEED, STM, surface vibrational spectroscopy, and TPD. From the physical and chemical interaction between photons、electrons、atoms and ions with surfaces, the surface properties, including surface composition, surface structure, surface topography, electronic structure, and chemical bonding will be probed.
