This book is written with the view of providing learners a fast track into the modern applications of quantum physics. It is designed as a book of Problems and Solutions, consisting of more than 200 exercises with explicitly worked out solutions.Focusing on modern research topics, the problems are designed to suit recent developments such as graphene, topological materials, spintronics, and quantum computation and information (QCI). Categorized into eight chapters, the book first introduces QM for undergraduates with an emphasis on the Dirac formalism and its representation in the form of matrices and functions. Chapter 2 is dedicated to spin physics, where the spinor formalism is increasingly relevant to research on spintronics, graphene, topological systems, Dirac, Weyl, and all branches of quantum information sciences. Chapter 3 deals with second quantization and its applications in nanoscience and condensed matter physics. Building on the foundations of the previous two chapters, Chapter 4 expounds on the non-equilibrium Green's Function (NEGF) - a modern topic with problems designed to suit applications in nanoscale electronic and spintronics systems. Chapter 5 covers gauge fields and topology, with a modern emphasis on applications in new materials such as graphene and topological systems. Chapter 6 comprises numerous advanced sub-topics in condensed matter physics as well as conventional topics such as band structures and entanglement entropy. Chapter 7 extends to cross-disciplinary and miscellaneous physics, where the topics are not necessarily quantum by nature, but deal with issues that have inspired the development of quantum mechanics and quantum fields. Lastly, the book caters to quantum computation with a preamble on the QM foundations of spin, projection, measurement and density matrices which underpin applications in quantum gates, quantum teleportation and entanglement.Readers can expect a handy and effective guide in mastering problem solving techniques in frontier applications of quantum physics. …

About the Author
Seng Ghee Tan is a Professor in Physics at the Chinese Culture University, Taiwan. He obtained his PhD in quantum electronics and spintronics at the National University of Singapore (NUS). He was a Senior Research Fellow at the Agency for Science, Technology and Research (A*STAR, Singapore) from 2006 to 2009, before serving as Assistant Professor at NUS from 2009 to 2016. Prof. Tan was also a Visiting Professor at the National Taiwan University. His research interest broadly extends over quantum nanoscience and condensed matter systems, with milestone publications on spin-orbit interactions, spin-hall effects, graphene systems, topological insulators, and application of Yang-Mills physics in spintronics.
Ching Hua Lee is an Assistant Professor at the National University of Singapore (NUS). He obtained his BSc and PhD in theoretical condensed matter physics at Stanford University. His research interests include topological metamaterials/circuits, non-Hermitian physics, quantum circuit simulations, Floquet dynamics, nodal metals, strongly correlated electrons, quantum information and complex networks.
Mansoor B A Jalil is an Associate Professor in Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE) Department at the National University of Singapore (NUS). He obtained his PhD at the University of Cambridge, UK. He was an adjunct staff at the Data Storage Institute, A*STAR, Singapore, an Assistant Professor at ECE Department, NUS, and served as Deputy Director of the NUS Nanoscience and Nanotechnology Initiative (NUSNNI). His research activities are focused on the theory and simulation of spintronic devices, topological materials like Weyl semimetals and two-dimensional conductors like graphene and silicene. Prof. Mansoor Jalil has published more than 250 papers in international peer-reviewed journals, given talks as a keynote speaker in the US, Japan, China, Israel and Korea, and contributed review articles and book chapters on spintronics and quantum devices.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to Rarewaves.com USA, Unit 144 The Lightbox, 111 Power Road, W4 5PY, London, London, United Kingdom, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods.
