Band theory and electronic properties of solids
Material type: TextPublication details: Oxford New York Oxford University Press 2001Description: xvi, 222 p. illISBN: 0198506457 (hbk. : acidfree paper); 0198506449 (pbk. : acidfree paper)Subject(s): Energy-band theory of solids | SolidsDDC classification: 530.412 Summary: This latest text in the new Oxford Master Series in Physics provides a much need introduction to band theory and the electronic properties of materials. Written for students in physics and material science, the book takes a pedagogical approach to the subject through the extensive use of illustrations, examples and problem sets. The author draws on his extensive experience teaching band theory to provide the reader with a thorough understanding of the field. Considerable attention is paid to the vocabulary and quantum-mechanical training necessary to learn about the electronic, optical and structural properties of materials in science and technology. The text also offers several chapters on the newest experimental techniques used to study band structure. Concise yet rigorous, it fills a long overdue gap between student texts and current research activities.Item type | Current library | Call number | Status | Date due | Barcode |
