Electronic Structure and the Properties of Solids: The Physics of the Chemical Bond

by Walter A. Harrison
Compare to estimated retail price: RM194.00 MYR  

The item you've got your eye on is secondhand. You probably already know that, but just in case!

The estimated retail price shown next to any listed item represents the first-hand prices we've seen elsewhere, or the estimated original retail price of a comparable item of the same quality, construction and material offered elsewhere in new condition.

Electronic Structure and the Properties of Solids: The Physics of the Chemical Bond
Electronic Structure and the Properties of Solids: The Physics of the Chemical Bond

For serious minds decoding how solids behave

If you like physics that connects elegant theory to real materials, this is the kind of book that feels deeply rewarding. Harrison has a gift for making electronic structure feel usable rather than abstract, showing how bonding, conductivity, and material properties all fit together. Readers who enjoy rigorous but illuminating texts often find it the sort of reference they keep returning to long after finishing it.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Condition guide

Book Condition Guide

Books in Like New Condition

This book may contain very minor cosmetic defects, but it is in pristine condition. There should be no yellowing, no foxing, no water damage, and no annotations of any kind on the cover and the pages. For paperbacks, there should not be any crease marks on the spine. This book is good as new — lucky you!

*Books may be missing bundle media (e.g. CD, e-book code), if included.

Books in Very Good Condition

This book has been used, but it is still in a clean condition. There should be no foxing or annotations of any kind on the inner pages, but a sparse amount may be present on the cover, title pages, or outside edges of the book. There should be no water damage of any kind. For paperbacks, there may be light crease marks on the spine.

*Books may be missing bundle media (e.g. CD, e-book code), if included.

Books in Good Condition

We do our best to ensure the quality of our books, but there is no escaping the wear and tear that comes with time. Slight foxing and some annotations may be present on the pages and the cover. There should be no water damage of any kind. For paperbacks, there may be several crease marks on the spine.

*Books may be missing bundle media (e.g. CD, e-book code), if included.

Books in Well Read Condition

This is a well-read book, which means that the previous owner probably really enjoyed it! The cover and pages may include moderate foxing and annotations, but the text is not obscured and still readable. Moderate cosmetic defects and minor water damage may be present on the edges of the book. For paperbacks, there may be multiple crease marks on the spine.

*Books may be missing bundle media (e.g. CD, e-book code), if included.

Description

An authoritative text on the electronic structure of covalent and ionic solids, simple metals, transition metals, and their compounds. The book explains how electronic structure governs dielectric, conducting, and bonding properties and presents several approaches to approximate electronic structure, with quantitative results. It includes a Solid State Table of the Elements to estimate almost any solid property, with calculator-based methods using the techniques developed in the book. Designed for graduate or advanced undergraduate students who have completed quantum mechanics or atomic and modern physics, the volume treats the relationship between structure and properties across all solids rather than for specific classes. It is a comprehensive reference for those applying approximate methods to electronic-structure engineering, semiconductor development, and materials science. The book also features end-of-chapter problems, tables, appendices, and indexes.
