Résumé

Quantum Theory of Solids presents a concisely-structured tour of the theory relating to chemical bonding and its application to the three most significant topics in solid state physics: semiconductors, magnetism and superconductivity-topics which have seen major advances over recent years. It is a unique book that develops the concepts of quantum theory for the solid state from the basics through to an advanced level, encompassing additional quantum mechanics techniques such as the variational method and perturbation theory, providing an excellent grounding for final year undergraduates and masters level students.Contents

Introduction and Review of Quantum Mechanics
Bonding in Molecules and Solids
Band Structure of Solids
Band Structure and Defects in Bulk Semiconductors
Physics and Applications of Low-Dimensional Structures
Diamagnetism and Paramagnetism
Ferromagnetism and Magnetic Order
Superconductivity
