Superconductors & Superconductivity

Most popular at the top

  • High Temperature Superconductors And Other Superfluidsby A. S. Alexandrov; the late Sir Nevill Mott

    CRC Press 1994; US$ 74.95

    Written by experts in the field this book provides an explanation of physical properties of high temperature superconductors based on modern bipolaron theory of superconductivity in clear and accessible language. more...

  • Superconductivityby Kristian Fossheim; Asle Sudboe

    John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 2005; US$ 165.00

    Superconductivity: Physics and Applications brings together major developments that have occurred within the field over the past twenty years. Taking a truly modern approach to the subject the authors provide an interesting and accessible introduction. Brings a fresh approach to the physics of superconductivity based both on the well established and convergent picture for most low-Tc superconductors, provided by the BCS theory at the microscopic level, and London and Ginzburg-Landau theories at the phenomenological level, as well as on experiences gathered in high-Tc research in recent years. Includes end of chapter problems and numerous relevant examples Features brief interviews with key researchers in the field A prominent feature... more...

  • Rise of the Superconductorsby George Saunders

    Taylor & Francis 2004; US$ 62.95

    This book relates the story of the discovery and development of the science that has produced one of the most active and exciting areas of condensed matter physics research and applications - Superconductoers more...

  • Mechanisms of Conventional and High Tc Superconductivityby Vladimir Z. Kresin; Hans Morawitz; Stuart A. Wolf

    Oxford University Press 1993; US$ 250.00

    Presents the methods, established results, and advances in the field of superconductivity including phonic, magnetic, and electronic models. The authors focus on the phenomenon of induced superconductivity in the high-temperature ("high-Tc") oxides, particularly the high transition temperature cuprates. more...

  • Concise Encyclopedia of Magnetic and Superconducting Materialsby K.H.J. Buschow

    Elsevier 2006; US$ 420.00

    Magnetic and superconducting materials pervade every avenue of the technological world ? from microelectronics and mass-data storage to medicine and heavy engineering. Both areas have experienced a recent revitalisation of interest due to the discovery of new materials, and the re-evaluation of a wide range of basic mechanisms and phenomena. This Concise Encyclopedia draws its material from the award-winning Encyclopedia of Materials and Engineering , and includes updates and revisions not available in the original set -- making it the ideal reference companion for materials scientists and engineers with an interest in magnetic and superconducting materials. * Contains in excess of 130 articles, taken from the award-winning Encyclopedia... more...

  • Recent Advances in Laser Processing of Materialsby Jacques Perriere; Eric Millon; Eric Fogarassy

    Elsevier 2006; US$ 200.00

    Laser materials interaction and processing is an established and growing field within the materials science community. By taking a detailed look at the fundamentals of laser matter interaction, this book charts the recent progress of laser materials interaction and processing in various emerging materials science domains. With special emphasis placed on nanostructures and future developments, this book provides an interdisciplinary support for basic and applied photo-assisted processing research. Coverage includes: - laser assisted synthesis of new materials (nanoparticles, nanotubes, active molecules, new phases...) -laser assisted surface transformation (nanostructuring, lithography, etching...) -laser assisted bulk material transformation... more...

  • Magnetoelectronicsby Mark Johnson

    Elsevier 2004; US$ 255.00

    The arrival of the ?information age? took most people by surprise ? including scientists and technologists. Today, research on better, smaller, and faster ways to store and transfer information continues to grow, and growing fast within this scope is the field of magnetoelectronics. With its possibilities as a magnetic storage technology capable of overcoming the vulnerabilities of CMOS (complementary metal on oxide semiconductor), magnetoelectronics promises to be an important installation in the information era. more...

  • Isolated Neutron Starsby Silvia Zane; Roberto Turolla; Dany Page

    Springer 2007; US$ 219.00

    This book collects the contributions presented at the conference Isolated Neutron Stars: From the Surface to the Interior, held in London in April 2006. Forty years after the discovery of radio pulsars it presents an up-to-date description of the new vision of isolated neutron stars that has emerged in recent years with the advance of multi-wavelength observations. The great variety of isolated neutron stars, from pulsars to magnetars, some of them discovered very recently and many of them not detectable in radio wavelengths, is amply covered by descriptions of recent observational results and presentations of the latest theoretical interpretation of these data. more...

  • Cryogenic Engineeringby K.D. Timmerhaus; Richard Reed

    Springer 2007; US$ 199.00

    Starting with an historical background dating to the 1850s, this book reviews the development of data resources available for cryogenic fields and properties of materials. The advances in cryogenic fundamentals are covered by reviews of cryogenic principles, cryogenic insulation, low-loss storage systems, modern liquefaction processes, and more. more...
