Wiley, 1999, 320 pages Livingston helps make the complex concepts behind the electronic properties of materials much more accessible for students. His very readable writing style and clear organization help to make the key topics much easier to understand. The first part of this text presents only classical ideas, covering the electronic properties of solids that are pertinent to the use of materials as components in various products. The secon...

Название: Martin R. , Electronic Structure - Basic Theory and Practical Methods Издательство:Cambridge University Press Год: 2004 ISBN-10: 0521782856 The study of the electronic structure of materials is at a momentous stage, with the emergence of new computational methods and theoretical approaches. This volume provides an introduction to the field and describes its conceptual framework, the capabilities of present methods, limitations, and cha...

Cambridge University Press, 2004 - 540 pages Annotation: Modern technology depends on materials with precisely controlled properties. Ion beams are an excellent way to achieve controlled modification of surface and near-surface regions. In every integrated circuit production line, for example, there are ion implantation systems. In addition to integrated circuit technology, ion beams can modify the mechanical, tribological, and chemical propertie...

Springer Science+Business Media, 2010, 337 pages Metal oxides are an important class of materials: from both scientific and technological perspectives they present interesting opportunities for research. Thin films are particularly attractive owing to their relevance in devices and also for the ability to pursue structure–property relations studies using controlled microstructures. The inherent compositional complexity (due to the presence of...

Springer, New York, 2008, 622 pages This book describes semiconductors from a materials science perspective rather than from condensed matter physics or electrical engineering viewpoints. It includes discussion of current approaches to organic materials for electronic devices. It further describes the fundamental aspects of thin film nucleation and growth, and the most common physical and chemical vapor deposition techniques. Examples of the app...

2nd Ed. Elsevier, 2004. - 711 p. (Studies in Inorganic Chemistry 21) This book was written to introduce the reader to the science and art of preparing inorganic luminescent materials, namely "phosphors". In order to understand how and why luminescent materials exhibit such specific intrinsic properties, one needs to be thoroughly versed in the science of the solid state. Contents: Introduction to the Solid State 1 The Point Defect Mechanisms of...

Springer-Verlag Berlin, 2010, 197 pages This book covers the theory of electronic structure of materials, with special emphasis on the usage of linear muffin-tin orbitals. Methodological aspects are given in detail as are examples of the method when applied to various materials. Different exchange and correlation functionals are described and how they are implemented within the basis of linear muffin-tin orbitals. Functionals covered are the lo...

Cambridge University Press, 2006, Pages: 315 The perovskite family of oxides includes a vast array of insulators, metals, and semiconductors. Current intense scientific interest stems from the large number of diverse phenomena exhibited by these materials including pseudo two-dimensional electronic energy bands, high temperature superconductivity, metal-insulator transitions, piezoelectricity, magnetism, photochromic, and catalytic activity.
