Ouvrage 9780792396666 : QUANTUM THEORY OF REAL MATERIALS
Quantum Theory of Real Materials is a collection of articles by leading
researchers in condensed matter physics, highlighting recent advances in the
use of quantum theory to explain and predict the properties of real
materials.
Quantum Theory of Real Materials covers the many exciting
developments at the forefront of quantum theory of materials research. The
volume is divided into six major sections covering electronic structure and
quantum dynamics; semiconductors, insulators and metals; surfaces,
interfaces and clusters; materials under pressure; superconductivity; and
fullerenes, superhard materials and other novel materials.
Quantum Theory of Real Materials is an excellent resource for
researchers interested in learning about the most advanced discoveries in
quantum theory of materials and applying that knowledge in the laboratory.
Students will also find this volume to be a clear introduction and reference.
