9783540418030: Optical Characterization of Solids

Synopsis

The main properties of different types of solids, such as dielectrics, semiconductors, disordered materials, impurified solids, low-dimensional structures, nanostructures, metals or superconductors, are revealed through their interaction with the electromagnetic field whose wavelength lies within the optical spectrum.

From the Back Cover

This is the first book to give a comprehensive and coherent account of the basic methods of characterizing a solid through its interaction with electromagnetic fields. The theoretical treatment focuses on the determination of the essential parameters of a solid (energy bands, energy levels, effective mass of electrons and holes etc.) from measured absorption coefficients, scattering data, magneto-optical results etc. The discussion is at an intermediate level and all the formulas are carefully deduced and explained. All types of solids (semiconductors, crystals, metals, etc.) are covered and the latest experimental results are also presented.
