文档介绍：ism and ic Materials
•
Covering basic physical concepts, experimental methods, and applications, this
book is an indispensable text on the fascinating science of ism, and an
invaluable source of practical reference data.
Accessible, authoritative, and assuming undergraduate familiarity with
vectors, ism and quantum mechanics, this textbook is well suited
to graduate courses. Emphasis is placed on practical calculations and numer-
ical magnitudes – from nanoscale to astronomical scale – focussing on mod-
ern applications, including permanent structures and spin electronic
devices.
Each self-contained chapter begins with a summary, and ends with exercises
and further reading. The book is thoroughly illustrated with over 600 figures to
help convey concepts and clearly explain ideas. Easily digestible tables and data
sheets provide a wealth of useful information on ic properties. The 38
principal ic materials, and many more pounds, are treated in
detail.
J. M. D. Coey leads the ism and Spin Electronics group at Trinity
College, Dublin, where he is Erasmus Smith’s Professor of Natural and Exper-
imental Philosophy. An authority on ism and its applications, he has
been awarded the Gold Medal of the Royal Irish Academy and the Charles
Chree Medal of the Institute of Physics for his work on ic materials.
