Physics of Condensed Matter

Physics of Condensed Matter is a physics and materials science. While graduation students can choose fundamental for further research. The text can also be used as a one-semester course for advanced undergraduate majors in physics, materials science, solid state chemistry, and electrical engineering.

The book begins with a clear, coherent picture of simple models of solids and properties. It offers a comprehensive account of research and development. The book assumes a working semantics curriculum.

Covers many advanced topics and spheres: Spintronics, Heavy fermions, Metallic nanoclusters, Zno, Graphene and graphene-based electronic, Quantum hall effect, High temperature superdonductivity, Nanotechnology

A diverse number of Experimental techniques clearly simplified
