Solid State Chemistry is designed to give students a thorough knowledge of crystal structures: lattices, unit cells, close packing, octahedral and tetrahedral holes in their occupation by various ions in the well-known crystal structures. This descriptive work is augmented by free-electron and band theory. Links to other branches of chemistry and practical examples emphasized, as are the links back to band theory and crystal structures. The second edition represents a considerable...
More DescriptionSolid State Chemistry is designed to give students a thorough knowledge of crystal structures: lattices, unit cells, close packing, octahedral and tetrahedral holes in their occupation by various ions in the well-known crystal structures. This descriptive work is augmented by free-electron and band theory. Links to other branches of chemistry and practical examples emphasized, as are the links back to band theory and crystal structures. The second edition represents a considerable revision. Following a survey of uses the authors have updated the entire work, introducing two new chapters, one on X-ray diffraction techniques and another on solid state preparative methods, as well as adding new sections on symmetry and feroelectrics.
