Advanced Quantum Mechanics: Materials and Photons is a textbook which emphasizes the importance of advanced quantum mechanics for materials science and all experimental techniques which employ photon absorption, emission, or scattering. Important aspects of introductory quantum mechanics are covered in the first seven chapters to make the subject self-contained and accessible for a wide audience. The textbook can therefore be used for advanced undergraduate courses and introductory graduate courses which are targeted towards students with diverse academic backgrounds from the Natural Sciences or Engineering. To enhance this inclusive aspect of making the subject as accessible as possible, Appendices A and ... Read more

Reviews for Advanced Quantum Mechanics: Materials and Photons
From the reviews: “Book goes through quantum mechanics starting from its foundations, that are introduced along the historical development. It also includes recent topics … that is necessary to understand quantum effects inside chemistry, material science, microelectronics and photonics. The style is always very didactic, mathematical tools are introduced in a very gradual way … . Some chapters may ... Read more
