Vacuum Science and Technology


Book Description

Market: Researchers and technicians in vacuum science, and those interested in the field. This comprehensive overview of the groundbreaking work in vacuum science from 1910 to 1960 presents original biographies of the scientists and engineers at the vanguard of vacuum technology. It also features papers now regarded as milestones. Among these are Saul Dushman's "Theory and Use of the Molecular Gauge" (1915), Pieter Clausing's "The Flow of Highly Rarefied Gases through Tubes of Arbitrary Length" (1932), and L.D. Hall's "Electronic Ultra-High Vacuum Pump" (1932).




Vacuum


Book Description

Vacuum plays an important role in science and technology. The study of interaction of charged particles, neutrals and radiation with each other and with solid surfaces requires a vacuum environment for reliable investigations. Vacuum has contributed to major advancements made in nuclear science, space, metallurgy, electrical/electronic technology, chemical engineering, transportation, robotics and many other fields. This book is intended to assist students, scientists, technicians and engineers with understanding the basics of vacuum science and technology for application in their projects. The fundamental theories, concepts, devices, applications, and key inventions are discussed.




Vacuum Science and Technology


Book Description

This book presents a modern and balanced approach while discussing the conceptual and practical aspects of vacuum science and technology. The chapters in the book are planned in systematic fashion from basic concepts through vacuum production and measurement, vacuum components, trouble shooting and then providing applications. It would be useful to students, both at the under-graduate and graduate levels in physics and also in various branches of engineering. In addition, it would be of value to practicing scientists and engineers who have to deal will vacuum science and technology.




High-Vacuum Technology


Book Description

Offering a basic understanding of each important topic in vacuum science and technology, this book concentrates on pumping issues, emphasizes the behavior of vacuum pumps and vacuum systems, and explains the relationships between pumps, instrumentation and high-vacuum system performance. The book delineates the technical and theoretical aspects of the subject without getting in too deep. It leads readers through the subtleties of vacuum technology without using a dissertation on mathematics to get them there. An interesting blend of easy-to-understand technician-level information combined with engineering data and formulae, the book provides a non-analytical introduction to high vacuum technology.




Vacuum Sealing Techniques


Book Description

Market: Scientists, engineers, and graduate students in vacuum technology. This volume presents numerous techniques developed in the early 1960s for the efficient construction of reliable vacuum seals, and provides critical insights into the design, construction, and assembly of vacuum systems. Extensively researched, this work covers a variety of sealing techniques and design concepts that remain as technologically relevant now as they were nearly three decades ago.

Handbook of Materials and Techniques for Vacuum Devices


Book Description

Market: Engineers, researchers, and students in vacuum science and materials science and designers and manufacturers of vacuum electronic devices in any field where glass, ceramics, refractory metals, and joining methods are used. The republication of this widely used handbook makes available again an invaluable source of fundamental information on the construction of vacuum devices and provides a complete rundown on the properties of basic materials used in vacuum tubes (glass, ceramics, mica, carbon, graphite, iron, steel, copper, nickel, precious metals, refractory metals, and all relevant alloys). Most importantly, it offers step-by- step guidelines for basic joining techniques, including how to deal with common problems such as secondary emission and voltage breakdown. High-temperature properties are emphasized in recognition of the crucial role of vacuum devices in space technology.




A User's Guide to Vacuum Technology


Book Description

In the decade and a half since the publication of the Second Edition of A User?s Guide to Vacuum Technology there have been many important advances in the field, including spinning rotor gauges, dry mechanical pumps, magnetically levitated turbo pumps, and ultraclean system designs. These, along with improved cleaning and assembly techniques have made contamination-free manufacturing a reality. Designed to bridge the gap in both knowledge and training between designers and end users of vacuum equipment, the Third Edition offers a practical perspective on today?s vacuum technology. With a focus on the operation, understanding, and selection of equipment for industrial processes used in semiconductor, optics, packaging, and related coating technologies, A User?s Guide to Vacuum Technology, Third Edition provides a detailed treatment of this important field. While emphasizing the fundamentals and touching on significant topics not adequately covered elsewhere, the text avoids topics not relevant to the typical user.
