While applications rapidly change one to the next in our commercialized world, fundamental principles behind those applications remain constant. So if one understands those principles well enough and has ample experience in applying them, he or she will be able to develop a capacity for reaching results via conceptual thinking rather than having to always rely on models to test various conditions. In "Solid State and Quantum Theory for Optoelectronics", Michael Parker provides a general conceptual framework for matter that leads to the matter-light interaction explored in the author's Physics of Optoelectronics (CRC Press). Instead of overburdening readers with the definition - theorem - proof format often expected in mathematics texts, this book instructs readers through the development of conceptual pictures. Employing a proven pedagogic approach, as rigorous as it is intuitive, Professor Parker provides several lead-ins to the quantum theory including a brief review of Lagrange and Hamilton's approach to classical mechanics and the fundamental quantum link with Hilbert space. This title demonstrates the Schrodinger wave equation from the Feynman path integral.
