Contributions from several authors on the design, operation, fabrication, performance, materials, maintenance, and control of vacuum systems are presented. The various vacuum pumps and vacuum gages are discussed in detail. Safety considerations and protective devices for vacuum systems are considered, and the art of leak detection and repair is discussed. Also, the two basic vacuum techniques for producing thin films, vacuum evaporation and sputter deposition, are described. (WHK)
