Solid state chemistry

The book provides an overview of the fascinating spectrum of semiconductor physics, devices and applications, presented from a historical perspective.

This is the first book to provide a comprehensive treatment of theories and applications in the rapidly expanding field of the crystallography of modular materials.

Polymorphism - the multiplicity of structures or forms - is a term that is used in many disciplines.

This concise book is for chemists, material scientists, and physicists who deal with description of crystalline matter and the determination of its structure, and would like to gain more understanding of the principles involved.

Crystal Structure Refinement is a mixture of textbook and tutorial.

For hundreds of years, models of magnetism have been pivotal in the understanding and advancement of science and technology, from the Earth's interpretation as a magnetic dipole to quantum mechanics, statistical physics, and modern nanotechnology.

Diffuse X-ray scattering is a rich (virtually untapped) source of local structural information over and above that obtained by conventional crystal structure determination (crystallography).

This book provides a comprehensive and unified account of the structure and properties of crystalline binary adducts.

Crystals are sometimes called 'Flowers of the Mineral Kingdom'.

This book starts with the most elementary ideas of molecular orbital theory and leads the reader progressively to an understanding of the electronic structure, geometry and, in some cases, reactivity of transition metal complexes.

This book provides a study in Bonding, Structure and Solid State Chemistry.

This much-anticipated new edition of Jolivet's work builds on the edition published in 2000.

Scattering Methods and their Application in Colloid and Interface Science offers an overview of small-angle X-ray and neutron scattering techniques (SAXS & SANS), as well as static and dynamic light scattering (SLS & DLS).

The chemistry of platinum group metals is a rapidly expanding commercially important field.

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.

Solid State Chemistry is a general textbook, composed for those with little background knowledge of the subject, but who wish to learn more about the various segments of solid state theory and technology.

"e;Spillover and Mobility of Species and Solid Surfaces"e; collects the papers which were presented at the Fifth International Conference Spillover, either as oral or poster contributions, as well as the summaries of the invited lectures.

The time has come for an assessment of the most important techniques for the fabrication of advanced catalysts.
