Description

This book is a broad review of the electronic structure of metals and alloys. It emphasises the way in which the behavior of electrons in these materials governs the thermodynamic and other properties of these conducting materials. The theoretical treatment proceeds from a wave mechanics approach to more sophisticated techniques for the description of the properties of metals and alloys.

Readership

Researchers and graduate students in materials science, physical metallurgy, physics, and solid state chemistry

Table of contents
