ELECTRODYNAMICS OF SOLIDS. OPTICAL PROPERTIES OF ELECTRONS IN MATTER

Descripción

This book has its origins in a set of lecture notes, assembled at UCLA for a graduate course on the optical studies of solids. In preparing the course it soon became apparent that a modern, up to date summary of the field is not available. More than a quarter of a century has elapsed since the book by Wooten: Optical Properties of Solids – and also several monographs – appeared in print. The progress in optical studies of materials, in methodology, experiments and theory has been substantial, and optical studies (often in combination with other methods) have made definite contributions to and their marks in several areas of solid state physics. There appeared to be a clear need for a summary of the state of affairs – even if with a somewhat limited scope
