Optical Properties of Solids covers the important concepts of intrinsic optical properties and photoelectric emission. The book starts by providing an introduct

For final year undergraduates and graduate students in physics, this book offers an up-to-date treatment of the optical properties of solid state materials.

A graduate-level book about the propagation of electromagnetic fields and their interaction with condensed matter.

The aim of this book is to review recent achievements in thetheoretical investigations of the electronic structure, optical, magneto-optical (MO), and x-ray mag

An overview of the optical effects in solids, this book addresses the physics of materials and their response to electromagnatic radiation--back cover.
