Frontiers in Crystal Engineering
Wiley 2006; US$ 295.00Crystal engineering - where the myriad of intermolecular forces operating in the solid-state are employed to design new nano- and functional materials - is a key new technology with implications for catalysis, pharmaceuticals, synthesis and materials science. Frontiers in Crystal Engineering gathers personal perspectives, from international specialists... more...
Optical Applications of Liquid Crystals
CRC Press 2003; US$ 107.95Information about the physics and chemistry of liquid crystals is easy to come by, but information about applications is generally limited to technical papers or conference proceedings. Here scientists from industry and academia describe current and future applications such as three-dimensional holographic displays, projection displays, telecommuni more...
Crystal Growth
Elsevier Science 2004; US$ 175.00The book contains 5 chapters with 19 contributions form internationally well acknowledged experts in various fields of crystal growth. The topics are ranging from fundamentals (thermodynamic of epitaxy growth, kinetics, morphology, modeling) to new crystal materials (carbon nanocrystals and nanotubes, biological crystals), to technology (Silicon Czochralski... more...
UV-visible Spectrophotometry of Water and Wastewater
Elsevier Science 2007; US$ 310.00UV-Visible Spectrophotometry of Water and Wastewater is the first book dedicated to the use of UV spectrophotometry for water and wastewater quality monitoring. Using practical examples the reader is shown how this technique can be a source of new methods of characterization and measurement. Easy and fast to run, this simple and robust analytical... more...
50 Years Progress in Crystal Growth
Elsevier Science 2004; US$ 140.95There is no question that the field of solid state electronics, which essentially began with work at Bell laboratories just after World War II, has had a profound impact on today's Society. What is not nearly so widely known is that advances in the art and science of crystal growth underpin this technology. Single crystals, once valued only for their... more...
Models of Itinerant Ordering in Crystals
Elsevier Science 2010; US$ 240.00This book is devoted to the mathematical description of interesting phenomena which occur in solids, such as ferromagnetism, antiferromagnetism and superconductivity. Superconductivity and its interaction with ferro and antiferromagnetism is of special importance since over the last 15 years the temperature of superconductivity existence has been raised... more...
Dislocations in Solids
Elsevier Science 2007; US$ 330.00Dislocations are lines of irregularity in the structure of a solid analogous to the bumps in a badly laid carpet. Like these bumps they can be easily moved, and they provide the most important mechanism by which the solid can be deformed. They also have a strong influence on crystal growth and on the electronic properties of semiconductors. · Influence... more...
Introduction to Dislocations
Elsevier Science 2001; US$ 76.95Introduction to Dislocations was first published in 1965 in a series aimed at undergraduate and postgraduate students in metallurgy and materials science and related disciplines. At the time, the subject was maturing and it was expected that 'dislocation concepts' would remain a core discipline for a very long time. As expected, the book has been,... more...
