Compare Properties and Applications of Amorphous Materials by M F Thorpe, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters

The particular interest represented in this state of the art survey of amorphous materials is their electronic properties and device applications. The book is organised in five sections, starting with some more unusual aspects of structure. Section 2 deals with the very new area of self organisation in glasses and how this relates to a glass's rigidity. The next section surveys electronic states and transport phenomena. The fourth section deals with an area of photoinduced effects that has recently seen increased interest due to possible device applications. Finally, section 5 covers some properties specific to amorphous silicon and amorphous carbon. | Properties and Applications of Amorphous Materials by M F Thorpe, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
