商品描述

The study of electronic structure of materials is at a momentous stage, with new computational methods and advances in basic theory. Many properties of materials can be determined from the fundamental equations, and electronic structure theory is now an integral part of research in physics, chemistry, materials science and other fields. This book provides a unified exposition of the theory and methods, with emphasis on understanding each essential component. New in the second edition are recent advances in density functional theory, an introduction to Berry phases and topological insulators explained in terms of elementary band theory, and many new examples of applications. Graduate students and research scientists will find careful explanations with references to original papers, pertinent reviews, and accessible books. Each chapter includes a short list of the most relevant works and exercises that reveal salient points and challenge the reader.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

材料的電子結構研究正處於重要的階段,憑藉新的計算方法和基礎理論的進展。材料的許多性質可以從基本方程式中確定,而電子結構理論現在已成為物理學、化學、材料科學和其他領域研究的一部分。本書提供了理論和方法的統一講解,強調對每個重要組成部分的理解。第二版的新內容包括密度泛函理論的最新進展,以及用基礎能帶理論解釋的貝利相位和拓撲絕緣體的介紹,還有許多新的應用實例。研究生和研究科學家將找到詳細的解釋,並參考原始論文、相關評論和易於理解的書籍。每章包括一個最相關的作品簡短列表和揭示重點並挑戰讀者的練習題。
