Surface and Thin Film Phenomena

This cluster of papers explores the influence of quantum size effects on the electronic and superconducting properties of metallic nanostructures, particularly focusing on thin films, surface states, and atomic chains. The research delves into phenomena such as quantum well states, electron-phonon interactions, and the manifestation of superconductivity at the quantum limit.
