Beginning with a brief and focused account of the historical events leading to the formulation of modern quantum theory  later chapters delve into the underlying physics. Streamlined content  chapters on semiconductors  Dirac equation and quantum field theory  as well as a robust pedagogy and ancillary package  including an accompanying website with computer applets  assist students in learning the essential material. The applets provide a realistic description of the energy levels and wave functions of electrons in atoms and crystals. The Hartree-Fock and ABINIT applets are valuable tools for studying the properties of atoms and semiconductors. Develops modern quantum mechanical ideas systematically and uses these ideas consistently throughout the book Carefully considers fundamental subjects such as transition probabilities  crystal structure  reciprocal lattices  and Bloch theorem which are fundamental to any treatment of lasers and semiconductor devices Clarifies each important concept through the use of a simple example and often an illustration Features expanded exercises and problems at the end of each chapter Offers multiple appendices to provide quick-reference for students\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45646855798837,"sku":"ByrdShop_0128007346","price":112.69,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780128007341.jpg?v=1781679204","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/modern-physics-for-scientists-and-engineers-9780128007341","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
