Solid State Physics
The objective of Solid State Physics is to introduce college seniors and first-year graduate students in physics, electrical engineering, materials science, chemistry, and related areas to this diverse and fascinating field. I have attempted to present this complex subject matter in a coherent, integrated manner, emphasizing fundamental scientific ideas to give the student a strong understanding and "feel" for the physics and the orders of magnitude involved. The subject is varied, covering many important, sophisticated, and practical areas, which, at first, may appear unrelated but which are actually built on the same foundation: the bonding between atoms, the periodic translational symmetry, and the resulting electron energy levels. The text is comprehensive enough so that the basics of broad areas of present research are covered, yet flexible enough so that courses of varying lengths can be satisfied. the exercises at the end of each chapter serve to reinforce and extend the text.

Excellent book!
Published by Rajan , 11 months ago
This book covers a very thorough discussion on basics of Solid State Physics, starting with crystal structures, symmetry, bonding, x-ray diffraction, and then moves forward with discussion on electronic structure. Eventually it ends with discussion on some of the advanced topics such as high temperature superconductivity. The language is lucid, and even a non-expert can self study the book and learn Solid State Physics. A very unique book that can be equally useful for basic sciences as well as engineering students; theoretical as well as experimental physicists!
