1 online resource (xii, 590 pages) : illustrations |
| Contents |
Introduction -- Bonding styles and the free-electron model -- Electrons in a metal at finite temperature -- Periodic lattice, and lattice vibrations in crystals -- Conduction electrons in a periodic potential -- Electronic structure of representative elements -- Experimental techniques and principles of electronic structure-related phenomena --tElectronic structure calculations -- Electronic structure of alloys -- Electron transport properties in periodic systems (I) -- Electron transport properties in periodic systems (II) -- Superconductivity -- Magnetism, electronic structure and electron transport properties in magnetic metals -- Electronic structure of strongly correlated electron systems -- Electron structure and electron transport properties of liquid metals, amorphous metals and quasicrystals |
| Summary |
Using an accessible approach that compares theory and experiment as much as possible, this textbook gives a complete account of the theory of electrons in metals from the basics of one-electron band theory to topics of current research such as superconductors and quasicrystals |
