Product Description
It includes both chemical and physical approaches to the properties of solids, and clearly separates those aspects of materials properties that can be tackled with classical physics from those that require quantum mechanics.
* Quantum mechanics are introduced later to allow readers to be familiar with some of the mathematics necessary for quantum mechanics before being exposed to its bewildering fundamental concepts.
* Discusses the electronic properties of solids from the viewpoint of elementary band theory, and end with a brief treatment of semiconductors and some semiconducting devices.

Reviews


Excellent Boook
This is an excellent intorductory course book on the subject of electronic sciences. I am really impressed with Part 2 ( chapetre 8 to 16)- Quantum Mechanically Approach. The text is well supported by the the example after a subtopic. The concept of the energy bands, bonds, free electron theory, semiconductors are really explained very well from a conceptual point of view. The prolems in the books really gives an insight and by solving the problem clears the basic concepts of the subject.

Overall, the book is very good for a grasp in the subject.
