A self-study introduction to solid-state physics

Organized around the fundamentals of periodic crystals, the book covers lattice structures, radiation scattering, bonding, crystal vibrations and electronic properties. Its self-study orientation is supported by appendices for background material, detailed explanations of calculations and solved problems. Alongside the core material, shorter surveys introduce topics such as quasicrystals, soft condensed matter, mesoscopic physics and the quantum Hall effect. Examples connect the subject to modern research areas, including perovskite oxides, graphene and electrons in low-dimensional systems.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Suitable for independent learners seeking an introductory treatment of solid-state physics.
  • Useful to students who want worked problems and supporting background material.
  • A fit for readers interested in connections between crystal physics and modern research topics.

Book overview

This is an introductory book on solid state physics. It is a translation of a Hebrew version, written for the Open University in Israel. Aimed mainly for self-study, the book contains appendices with the necessary background, explains each calculation in detail and contains many solved problems. The bulk of the book discusses the basic concepts of periodic crystals, including lattice structures, radiation scattering off crystals, crystal bonding, vibrations of crystals, and electronic properties. On the other hand, the book also presents brief reviews of advanced topics, e.g. quasicrystals, soft condensed matter, mesoscopic physics and the quantum Hall effect. There are also many specific examples drawn from modern research topics, e.g. perovskite oxides relevant for high temperature superconductivity, graphene, electrons in low dimensions and more.
