Editorial Reviews
Review
'Advanced undergraduate and graduate students, and researchers in the fields of condensed matter physics, materials science, and optical engineering will find this book of interest.' Materials Today
'Optics is a multidisciplinary subject with impact on many other branches of physics and engineering. ... In this, they have succeeded admirably, providing an up-to-date monograph which includes many useful topics that are not covered in the more standard texts. ... an interesting useful book.' Contemporary Physics
Book Description
In this book the authors thoroughly discuss the optical properties of solids, with a focus on electron states and their response to electrodynamic fields. Their review of the propagation of electromagnetic fields and their interaction with condensed matter is followed by a discussion of the optical properties of metals, semiconductors, and superconductors. Theoretical concepts, measurement techniques and experimental results are covered in three interrelated sections. The volume is intended for use by graduate students and researchers in the fields of condensed matter physics, materials science, and optical engineering.
