This volume chronicles the proceedings of the 9th International Symposium on Particles on Surfaces: Detection, Adhesion and Removal held in Philadelphia, PA, June 2004. The study of particles on surfaces is crucially important in a legion of diverse technological areas, ranging from microelectronics to biomedical to space. This volume contains a total of 21 papers covering many ramifications of particles on surfaces, ranging from detection to removal. All manuscripts were rigorously peer-reviewed and revised, and properly edited before inclusion in this book. The topics covered include: imaging and analysis of macro and nanosize particles and surface features determination of particles on surfaces laser inactivation on surfaces laser-assisted nanofabrication on surfaces post-CMP cleaning process pre-gate cleaning solar panel obscuration in the Martian atmosphere adhesion and friction of microsized particles microroughness of textile fibers and capture of particles factors affecting particle adhesion and removal various techniques for cleaning or removal of particles from different substrates including laser, combination of laser-induced shockwave and explosive vaporization of liquid, attenuated total internal reflection of laser light, CO2 snow, use of dense phase fluids, use of surfactants and impinging air jet and removal of sub-100-nm particles.
