Solid State Theory Manfred Sigrist
Solid state physics is one of the most
active and versatile branches of modern physics that have developed in the wake
of the discovery of quantum mechanics. It deals with problems concerning the
properties of materials and, more generally, systems with many degrees of
freedom, ranging from fundamental questions to technological applications. The
topics explained in this pdf include:Introduction, Electrons in the periodic
crystal - band structure, Metals, Itinerant electrons in a magnetic field,
Landau’s Theory of Fermi Liquids, Transport properties of metals, Magnetism in
metals, Magnetism of localized moments.
