Although there are many books published in solid state physics, there is a wide gap between the active field of research and the conceptstraditionally taught in solid state courses.
Our current concept of matter, one of scientific research's greatest successes, represents a long journey, from questions posed during the birth of philosophy in Ancient Greece to recent advances in physics and chemistry, including Quantum Physics.
Since its inception in 1966, the series of numbered volumes known as Semiconductors and Semimetals has distinguished itself through the careful selection of well-known authors, editors, and contributors.
Since the first date of publication of this book in 1991, the subject of phosphors and luminescence has assumed even more importance in the overall scheme of technological development.
The goal of this Volume "e;Conceptual Foundations of Materials: A standard model for ground- and excited-state properties"e; is to present the fundamentals of electronic structure theory that are central to the understanding and prediction of materials phenomena and properties.
