Solid state chemistry

The field of crystal engineering concerns the design and synthesis of molecular crystals with desired properties.

The enormous size of polymer molecules causes their molecular motions to span a broad range of length scales and give rise to viscoelastic behaviour.

Solid-state lasers which offer multiple desirable qualities, including enhanced reliability, robustness, efficiency and wavelength diversity, are absolutely indispensable for many applications.

The principal objective of this book is to stimulate interest in research that will extend available theory towards a greater understanding of the steps involved in solid-state decompositions and the properties of solids that control reactivities.

Discover the exciting, promising field of molecular level artificial photosynthesis This special volume of Progress in Inorganic Chemistry presents the theory and practice of molecular artificial photosynthesis-a field holding tremendous promise now that molecular solar energy materials are fast becoming competitive with their solid-state counterparts.

Solid-state NMR covers an enormous range of material types and experimental techniques.

This invaluable book comprises assorted recent papers of Professor C N R Rao, a well-known chemist.

Most people are familiar with the fact that diamond and graphite are both composed only of carbon; yet they have very different properties which result from the very different structures of the two solids - they are polymorphs of carbon.

Long awaited, this textbook fills the gap for convincing concepts to describe amorphous solids.

In crystal chemistry and crystal physics, the relations between the symmetry groups (space groups) of crystalline solids are of special importance.

A modern and thorough treatment of the field for upper-level undergraduate and graduate courses in materials science and chemistry.

Calixarenes in Action is unique among books devoted to this interesting class of synthetic macrocycles.

Dieses umfangreiche Chemie Buch bietet eine strukturierte Einführung in die wichtigsten Bereiche der Chemie und eignet sich sowohl für Studienanfänger als auch fortgeschrittene Lernende.
