Basu S. Modern Perspectives in the Study of Electronic Systems 2022

Textbook in PDF format

Modern Perspectives in the Study of Electronic Systems focuses on recent developments in selected critical areas of condensed matter physics. The book blends theoretical developments and experimental discoveries of materials, helping the reader understand different phenomena. It studies the Quantum Hall Effect (integer and fractional) and superconductivity from phenomenological and microscopic perspectives. Magnetism and magnetic phenomena in solids via approximate solutions of the Hamiltonian model are also addressed. The book also discusses the topological aspects of materials that have fundamentally changed the study of condensed matter physics in the recent times. This timely and practical Introduces topology that has governed the study of two-dimensional Dirac materials and led to the discovery of three-dimensional materials Includes illustrations and plots for better visualization and understanding of the book content Uses a hands-on approach to teach subjects that have influenced teaching and research worldwide Modern Perspectives in the Study of Electronic Systems is an excellent tutorial for senior undergraduate students, graduate students, and early-career researchers. It will be helpful for teachers in teaching courses on specialized topics in condensed matter physics
