Solid State Materials Chemistry

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This comprehensive textbook provides a modern, self-contained treatment for upper undergraduate and graduate level students. It emphasizes the links between structure, defects, bonding, and properties throughout, and provides an integrated treatment of a wide range of materials, including crystalline, amorphous, organic and nano- materials. Boxes on synthesis methods, characterization tools, and technological applications distil specific examples and support student understanding of materials and their design. The first six chapters cover the fundamentals of extended solids, while later chapters explore a specific property or class of material, building a coherent framework for students to master core concepts with confidence, and for instructors to easily tailor the coverage to fit their own single semester course. With mathematical details given only where they strengthen understanding, 400 original figures and over 330 problems for hands-on learning, this accessible textbook is ideal for courses in chemistry and materials science.

Rezensionen

'This book will be invaluable to students, educators, and researchers studying inorganic materials chemistry. The breadth is impressive, with the fundamentals of the subject covered well, and followed by chapters that highlight optical, electronic, magnetic, porous, energy, and other applications of functional materials. Graduate-level problems on each topic support the educational aspects, and up-to-date case studies throughout make this an extremely useful resource for professional materials researchers.'
