The theory of electronic states in crystals is the very basis of modern solid state physics. In traditional solid state physics – based on the Bloch theorem – the theory of electronic states in crystals is essentially a theory of electronic states in crystals of in?nite size. However, that any real crystal always has a ?nite size is a physical reality one has to face. The di?erence between the electronic structure of a real crystal of ?nite size and the electronic structure obtained based on the Bloch theorem becomes more signi?cant as the crystal size decreases. A clear understanding of ... Read more

Reviews for Electronic States in Crystals of Finite Size
From the reviews: "The book is devoted to the theory of electronic states in crystal that have finite size. Mathematically, this reduces to spectral theory of Schrödinger operator with truncated periodic potential. … The book might be interesting to both physicists and mathematicians." (Aleksander Pankov, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1105 (7), 2007)
