This book was released on 2007 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book includes all main physical properties of d- and f-transition-metal systems and corresponding theoretical concepts. Special attention is paid to the theory of magnetism and transport phenomena. Some examples of non-traditional questions which are treated in detail in the book: the influence of density of states singularities on electron properties; many-electron description of strong itinerant magnetism; mechanisms of magnetic anisotropy; microscopic theory of anomalous transport phenomena in ferromagnets. Besides considering classical problems of solid state physics as applied to transition metals, modern developments in the theory of correlation effects in d- and f-compounds are considered within many-electron models. The book contains, where possible, a simple physical discussion. More difficult questions are considered in Appendices.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Introduction to the Properties of Crystal Surfaces is an introductory text on crystal surfaces and their properties. A variety of phenomena, including electron emission, adsorption and oxidation, adhesion, friction, nucleation and epitaxial growth, and heterogeneous catalysis, are described by considering the details of the atomic and electronic structure in the surface region. This volume is comprised of seven chapters and begins with a discussion on the thermodynamics of surfaces, along with the equilibrium configuration at the intersection of interfaces and the effects of curvature of crystalline surfaces. The next chapter examines the properties of interfaces in multi-component systems, followed by an analysis of experimental measurements of surface tension in solids. The atomic structure of crystal surfaces and some theoretical aspects of surface studies are also considered, and experimental methods in used in such studies are outlined. The final chapter deals with two atomic processes that are involved in a number of reactions at crystal surfaces: surface atomic diffusion and adsorption. This book is intended for senior undergraduates in a materials science type of curriculum or those beginning research work in the field or associated areas.

Book excerpt: This progress report summarizes the research activities for the period July 1, 1990--June 30, 1991, the first year of a three-year renewal. The major accomplishments for the current year are: study of electronic structures and optical properties of several important ceramic crystals such as Y2O3, Al2O3, MgO, MgAl2O4, ZrO2, V2O3, V2O5 and all polycrystalline forms of SiO2; theoretical study on superconducting oxides; first-principles calculation of total energies and structural phase transitions in oxides and nitrides; basic study on metallic glasses including calculation of transport properties; and theory of rare-earth and transition metal compounds. The major thrust for the next year's effort will be concentrating on the following: continuation of electronic and optical studies of important ceramic systems. Particular emphasis will be on the total energy calculations on complex crystals such as various polymorphic forms of SiO2, ZrO2, and Si3N4; fundamental studies on the structure and properties of different phases of Boron and B-related compounds; and further development of the OLCAO method such as application of self-interaction correction to wide gap insulators, spin-polarized calculations on the magnetic glasses and extraction of effective interatomic pair potentials for simulational studies.

This book was released on 2021 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chalcogenide crystals are a unique class of materials very different from semiconductors or metallic alloys. They have many practical applications in the civil and military fields, especially in relation to their electronic, optical, and mechanical properties for energy conversion as thermoelectric materials and in environmental materials. Thermoelectric materials can be used to generate electricity from the temperature gradient based on the Seebeck effect and based on the Peltier effect they can be used in cooling applications. However, the fundamental understanding of the electronic structure and other physical properties of the chalcogenides is rather scattered and incomplete because they are much less systemically studied. This work provides a comprehensive study of many physical properties for large number of chalcogenide crystals. This work is mainly divided into two main parts: chapter 3 and chapter 4. In the first part of this work (chapter 3), we present a detailed study using first-principles calculations on the electronic structure, interatomic bonding, optical, and mechanical properties for 131 chalcogenide crystals. This part itself is divided into two main sections: section 3.1 and section 3.2 in chapter 3. Section 3.1 is for the first 32 crystals of 131 crystals, while section 3.2 is for the remaining 99 crystals. Based on this large database, we are able to identify some new and conspicuous observations to reach some useful conclusions related to the chemical composition of the chalcogenide compounds and their complex interatomic interactions. Moreover, the total bond order density (TBOD) is used as a single quantum mechanical metric to characterize the internal cohesion of these crystals enabling us to correlate them with the calculated properties, especially their mechanical properties. Finally, generalization of the observed trends and empirical rules can be extended to much larger classes of ternary and quaternary chalcogenide crystals and glasses so far unexplored. In the second part of this work (chapter 4), using density functional theory and semiclassical Boltzmann theory, we have computed the Seebeck coefficient, electrical conductivity, electronic thermal conductivity, power factor, and figure of merit of 30 chalcogenide crystals. VASP and Quantum Espresso packages are used to relax the crystal structures, calculate the electronic properties, and locate the Fermi level. The transport properties are then calculated using the BoltTraP code. The 30 crystals are divided into two groups. The first group has four crystals with quaternary composition (A2BCQ4) (A = Tl; B = Cd, Hg; C = Si, Ge, Sn; Q = S, Se, Te). The second group contains 26 crystals with the ternary composition (A'B'Q2) (A' = Ag, Cu, Au, Na; B' = B, Al, Ga, In; Q = S, Se, Te). Among these 30 chalcogenide crystals, the results for 11 crystals: Tl2CdGeSe4, Tl2CdSnSe4, Tl2HgSiSe4, Tl2HgSnS4, AuBSe2, AuBTe2, AuAlTe2, AuGaTe2, AuInTe2, AgAlSe2, and AgAlTe2 are revealed for the first time. In addition, temperature dependent transport properties of pure and doped AgSbSe2 and AgSbTe2 crystals with dopant compositions of AgSb0.94Cd0.06Te2 and AgSbTe1.85Se0.15 were explored. These results provide a large database for bulk chalcogenides crucial for a wide range of potential applications in renewable energy fields.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Actinides: Electronic Structure and Related Properties, Volume I reviews major advances that have been made concerning the electronic structure and properties of actinide elements, alloys, and compounds. The electronic energy band structure and magnetic properties of the actinides are examined, and results of hyperfine and neutron scattering studies are presented. Comprised of six chapters, this book opens with a historical introduction to actinide research followed by a chapter on crystal field theory that discusses the behavior of 5f electrons in actinide compounds when exposed to strong crystal-field interactions, with emphasis on the strong intra-atomic correlation between electrons. The following chapters discuss the electronic energy band structure of the actinide metals, as derived from energy band theory; the magnetic properties of the actinide compounds in relation to their electronic structure; and the microscopic electronic properties of actinide metals and compounds obtained from nuclear magnetic resonance and neutron scattering studies. The final chapter summarizes the unique contribution by slow neutron-scattering experiments. This volume will be useful to scientists involved in work on the actinides as well as newcomers in the field.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Physics of Condensed Matter is designed for a two-semester graduate course on condensed matter physics for students in physics and materials science. While the book offers fundamental ideas and topic areas of condensed matter physics, it also includes many recent topics of interest on which graduate students may choose to do 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, because it offers a breadth of topics applicable to these majors. The book begins with a clear, coherent picture of simple models of solids and properties and progresses to more advanced properties and topics later in the book. It offers a comprehensive account of the modern topics in condensed matter physics by including introductory accounts of the areas of research in which intense research is underway. The book assumes a working knowledge of quantum mechanics, statistical mechanics, electricity and magnetism and Green's function formalism (for the second-semester curriculum). Covers many advanced topics and recent developments in condensed matter physics which are not included in other texts and are hot areas: Spintronics, Heavy fermions, Metallic nanoclusters, Zno, Graphene and graphene-based electronic, Quantum hall effect, High temperature superdonductivity, Nanotechnology Offers a diverse number of Experimental techniques clearly simplified Features end of chapter problems

Download or read book Advanced Physics of Electron Transport in Semiconductors and Nanostructures written by Massimo V. Fischetti and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-05-20 with total page 481 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This textbook is aimed at second-year graduate students in Physics, Electrical Engineering, or Materials Science. It presents a rigorous introduction to electronic transport in solids, especially at the nanometer scale.Understanding electronic transport in solids requires some basic knowledge of Hamiltonian Classical Mechanics, Quantum Mechanics, Condensed Matter Theory, and Statistical Mechanics. Hence, this book discusses those sub-topics which are required to deal with electronic transport in a single, self-contained course. This will be useful for students who intend to work in academia or the nano/ micro-electronics industry.Further topics covered include: the theory of energy bands in crystals, of second quantization and elementary excitations in solids, of the dielectric properties of semiconductors with an emphasis on dielectric screening and coupled interfacial modes, of electron scattering with phonons, plasmons, electrons and photons, of the derivation of transport equations in semiconductors and semiconductor nanostructures somewhat at the quantum level, but mainly at the semi-classical level. The text presents examples relevant to current research, thus not only about Si, but also about III-V compound semiconductors, nanowires, graphene and graphene nanoribbons. In particular, the text gives major emphasis to plane-wave methods applied to the electronic structure of solids, both DFT and empirical pseudopotentials, always paying attention to their effects on electronic transport and its numerical treatment. The core of the text is electronic transport, with ample discussions of the transport equations derived both in the quantum picture (the Liouville-von Neumann equation) and semi-classically (the Boltzmann transport equation, BTE). An advanced chapter, Chapter 18, is strictly related to the ‘tricky’ transition from the time-reversible Liouville-von Neumann equation to the time-irreversible Green’s functions, to the density-matrix formalism and, classically, to the Boltzmann transport equation. Finally, several methods for solving the BTE are also reviewed, including the method of moments, iterative methods, direct matrix inversion, Cellular Automata and Monte Carlo. Four appendices complete the text.

Book excerpt: Recent innovations in experimental techniques such as molecular and cluster beam epitaxy, supersonic jet expansion, matrix isolation and chemical synthesis are increasingly enabling researchers to produce materials by design and with atomic dimension. These materials constrained by sire, shape, and symmetry range from clusters containing as few as two atoms to nanoscale materials consisting of thousands of atoms. They possess unique structuraI, electronic, magnetic and optical properties that depend strongly on their size and geometry. The availability of these materials raises many fundamental questions as weIl as technological possibilities. From the academic viewpoint, the most pertinent question concerns the evolution of the atomic and electronic structure of the system as it grows from micro clusters to crystals. At what stage, for example, does the cluster look as if it is a fragment of the corresponding crystal. How do electrons forming bonds in micro-clusters transform to bands in solids? How do the size dependent properties change from discrete quantum conditions, as in clusters, to boundary constrained bulk conditions, as in nanoscale materials, to bulk conditions insensitive to boundaries? How do the criteria of classification have to be changed as one goes from one size domain to another? Potential for high technological applications also seem to be endless. Clusters of otherwise non-magnetic materials exhibit magnetic behavior when constrained by size, shape, and dimension. NanoscaIe metal particles exhibit non-linear opticaI properties and increased mechanical strength. SimiIarly, materials made from nanoscale ceramic particIes possess plastic behavior.
