Additional Accessibility Information
-
All (or substantially all) textual matter is arranged in a single logical reading order (including text that is visually presented as separate from the main text flow, e.g., in boxouts, captions, tables, footnotes, endnotes, citations, etc.). Non-textual content is also linked from within this logical reading order. (Purely decorative non-text content can be ignored).
-
The language of the text has been specified (e.g., via the HTML or XML lang attribute) to optimise text-to-speech (and other alternative renderings), both at the whole document level and, where appropriate, for individual words, phrases or passages in a different language.
-
For readers with color vision deficiency, use of color (e.g., in diagrams, graphics and charts, in prompts, or on buttons inviting a response) is not the sole means of graphical distinction or of conveying information
-
Content is enhanced with ARIA roles to optimize organization and facilitate navigation
-
Where interactive content is included in the product, controls are provided (e.g., for speed, pause and resume, reset) and labelled to make their use clear.

This product relies on 3rd party tooling which may impact the accessibility features visible in inspection copies. All accessibility features mentioned would be present in the purchased version of the title.
Description
Solid State Physics, Third Edition provides timely coverage of the most important scientific breakthroughs of the last decade. The book helps build readers' understanding of the newest advances in condensed matter physics with rigorous yet clear mathematical explanations. Comprehensive examples and chapter appendices are an integral part of the text, carefully designed to apply the fundamental principles illustrated in the text to currently active research topics. Fundamental concepts and recent advances in the field, including basic elements useful for understanding the electron behavior in nanostructures, are explained in tutorial style and organized in an intuitive manner.The book contains new content on topics including the in-depth presentation of Green’s function approach to simulate electron transport in nanostructures and expanded material on the description of nanoscale systems. The authors introduce the non-equilibrium Green’s function formalism and demonstrate its relation to the microscopic quantum transport of electrons, as well as the role of contacts, gates and disorder in realistic devices. This revised textbook is a basic reference work for students, researchers, and lecturers in any area of solid-state physics.
Key Features
- Addresses solid state physics questions and explores their full, detailed solutions, complete with chapter appendices
- Presents material from various areas of solid state physics in a simple, self-contained, tutorial manner that is appropriate for a designated course
- Explains to readers the newest advances in the area of condensed matter physics through rigorous but lucid mathematics and carefully designed examples
- Bridges the gap between the active field of research and the concepts traditionally taught in solid state courses
- Provides student and instructor support with ancillary exercise problems and numerical MATLAB scripts
