Protonic conduction in liquid electrolytes is commonplace but is relatively rare in solids. There is much interest worldwide in proton conducting solids, both from the scientific aspect, as materials with novel properties, but also for their possible applications in high-density…
This graduate textbook applies group theory to solids and molecules. The author develops invariant methods for solving vibration problems and constructing the form of crystal tensors, and describes applications to optical absorption selection rules, electronic energy bands, and …
Disk contains: Profiler, a program which calculates concentration profiles for single-phase multicomponent diffusion couples containing up to eight components.
Develops the concepts of quantum theory for the solid state from basics to a level beyond broader texts in a single sourcebook. Appropriate prior knowledge is assumed - and it applies that knowledge to build an understanding of three topics, namely.
