Second Edition
edited by Rointan F. Bunshah

This Second Edition updates the many improvements in deposition technologies, the mechanisms, and applications.

The entire volume has been extensively revised and contains 50% or more new material. Five entirely new chapters have been added. The organization of the book has also been changed in the following respects:

• Considerably more material has been added in Plasma Assisted Vapor Deposition Processes

• A new chapter on Metallurgical Coating Applications
