It has been almost thirty years since the publication of a book that is entirely dedicated to the theory, description, characterization and measurement of the thermal conductivity of solids.
This book presents a self-contained derivation of van der Waals and Casimir type dispersion forces, covering the interactions between two atoms but also between microscopic, mesoscopic, and macroscopic objects of various shapes and materials.
This thesis presents various characteristics of 122-type iron pnictide (FeSC) such as crystal and electronic structure, carrier-doping effect, and impurity-scattering effect, using transport, magnetization, specific heat, single-crystal X-ray diffraction, and optical spectral measurements.
This thesis focuses on the study of phonon polaritons-hybrids of infrared light and lattice vibrations-in van der Waals polar materials, particularly strongly anisotropic (hyperbolic) ones.
This book provides a broad and nuanced overview of the achievements and legacy of Professor William ("e;Bill"e;) Goddard in the field of computational materials and molecular science.
Regular Nanofabrics in Emerging Technologies gives a deep insight into both fabrication and design aspects of emerging semiconductor technologies, that represent potential candidates for the post-CMOS era.
This book provides a clear and very broadly based introduction to crystallography, light, X-ray and electron diffraction - a knowledge which is essential to students in a wide range of scientific disciplines but which is otherwise generally covered in subject-specific and more mathematically detailed texts.
Quantum Dynamics is a major survey of quantum theory based on Walter Greiner's long-running and highly successful course at the University of Frankfurt.

This book is on quantal density functional theory (QDFT) which is a time-dependent local effective potential theory of the electronic structure of matter.
Over the last thirty years or so, the attempts to identify the electronic origins of materials properties have proceeded along two distinct and apparently divergent methodologies.
An innovative and modular textbook combining established classical topics in statistical mechanics with the latest developments in condensed matter physics.
For a system consisting of a random medium with roughboundaries, the governing (Bethe-Salpeter) equation forboundary-value transport problems can be written in a formsuch that the medium and the boundaries are treatedon anequal footing.
