Understanding properties of atoms, molecules and materials / Pranab Sarkar and Sankar Prasad Bhattacharyya. - First edition. - xvi, 416 pages : illustrations ; 26 cm.
Includes bibliographical references and index.
The science of materials -- Quantum mechanics -- Quantum mechanics of atoms -- Molecular quantum mechanics -- Quantum states of solids -- Classical statistical mechanics -- Quantum statistical mechanics -- Traditional materials -- The advent of smart materials -- Magnetic materials -- Low-dimensional materials -- Energy materials -- Designer materials -- Current status and outlook for future.
"The book introduces the readers in material chemistry/engineering to elementary quantum mechanics of atoms, molecules and solids,with methods of statistical mechanics (classical as well as quantum) along with elementary principles of classical MD simulation. The basic concepts are illustrated with easy to grasp examples, thus preparing the readers for an exploration through the world of materials - the exotic and the mundane. The emphasis has been on the phenomena and what shapes them at the fundamental level. A fairly comprehensive description of modern designing principles for materials with examples is a unique feature of the book"--
