Description for Quantum Theory of Solids
Paperback. A modern presentation of theoretical solid state physics that builds directly upon Kittela s Introduction to Solid State Physics. Treats phonon, electron, and magnon fields, culminating in the BCS theory of superconductivity. Considers Fermi surfaces and electron wave functions and develops the group theoretical description of Brillouin zones. Num Pages: 528 pages, illustrations, index. BIC Classification: PHFC; PHQ. Category: (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 229 x 151 x 32. Weight in Grams: 822.

About Charles Kittel
About the author...Charles Kittel taught solid state physics at the University of California Berkeley from 1951 to 1978. Earlier he had been a member of the solid state physics group at Bell Laboratories. His undergraduate work in physics was a M.I.T. and at the Cavendish Laboratory of Cambridge University. His PhD was from the University of Wisconsin. He has been ... Read more
