Description for Transition Metal Compounds
Hardcover. This book describes all aspects of the physics of transition metal compounds, providing a comprehensive overview of this diverse class of solids. Num Pages: 496 pages, 292 b/w illus. BIC Classification: PNK. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (U) Tertiary Education (US: College). Dimension: 178 x 250 x 28. Weight in Grams: 1118.
Describing all aspects of the physics of transition metal compounds, this book provides a comprehensive overview of this unique and diverse class of solids. Beginning with the basic concepts of the physics of strongly correlated electron systems, the structure of transition metal ions, and the behaviours of transition metal ions in crystals, it goes on to cover more advanced topics such as metal-insulator transitions, orbital ordering, and novel phenomena such as multiferroics, systems with oxygen holes, and high-Tc superconductivity. Each chapter concludes with a summary of key facts and concepts, presenting all the most important information in a consistent and ... Read more

Reviews for Transition Metal Compounds
'Khomskii successfully leads the reader through the field of transition-metal compounds by focusing on physical insight without detailed mathematical derivations. He has a deep understanding of the field and communicates his knowledge very well.' Thomas M. Cooper, MRS Bulletin 'The author concludes each chapter with a short summary that repeats the chapter's main ideas in a concentrated form. Those addenda ... Read more
