All of the chapters have been updated and improved, and new sections on optical control of spin, quantum dots, plasmonics, negative refraction, carbon nanostructures and diamond NV centres have been added.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eOmschrijving\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe second edition of this successful textbook provides an up-to-date account of the optical physics of solid state materials. The basic principles of absorption, reflection, luminescence, and light scattering are covered for a wide range of materials, including insulators, semiconductors and metals. The text starts with a review of classical optics, and then moves on to the treatment of optical transition rates by quantum theory. In addition to the traditional discussion of crystalline materials, glasses and molecular solids are also covered.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe first edition included a number of subjects that are not normally covered in standard texts, notably semiconductor quantum wells, molecular materials, vibronic solid state lasers, and nonlinear optics. The basic structure of the second edition is unchanged, but all of the chapters have been updated and improved. Futhermore, a number of important new topics have been added, including:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e* Optical control of spin\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e* Quantum dots\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e* Plasmonics\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e* Negative refraction\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e* Carbon nanostructures (graphene, nanotubes and fullerenes)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e* NV centres in diamond\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe text is aimed at final year undergraduates, masters students and researchers. It is mainly written for physicists, but might also be useful for electrical engineers, materials scientists and physical chemists. The topics are written in a clear tutorial style with worked examples, chapter summaries and exercises. A solutions manual is available on request for instructors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eProductspecificaties\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAuteur:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mark Fox (Department of Physics and Astronomy, University of Sheffield)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSerie:\u003c\/strong\u003e Oxford Master Series in Physics deel 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUitgever:\u003c\/strong\u003e Oxford University Press\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVerschijningsdatum:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2010-03-25\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAantal pagina's:\u003c\/strong\u003e 418\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eISBN:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9780199573370\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThema:\u003c\/strong\u003e Condensed matter physics (liquid state and solid state physics)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBISAC:\u003c\/strong\u003e SCIENCE \/ Physics \/ Condensed Matter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eOver de auteur\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMark Fox, Professor of Physics at the University of Sheffield, began his research career at Christ Church, Oxford, in 1986, as a Junior Research Fellow.
