Download or read book Latest Trends in Condensed Matter Physics written by R.K. Singhal and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This special issue of "Solid State Phenomena" documents some novel experimental and theoretical approaches applied to fascinating materials. Motivated by the increasing need to synthesize and understand the properties of technologically important materials, this issue represents an important step forward in improving our understanding of how modern materials can be optimised for technology and industry. The issue comprises 9 original review papers covering experimental approaches and theoretical modeling. The contributions will be very useful to researchers working in various areas of CMP and will contribute significantly to the understanding of rapidly developing materials with regard to their synthesis, characterization and properties. Condensed matter physics plays a key role in the creation of new polymeric and crystalline materials. Containing only invited peer reviewed papers, this collection of nine contributions focuses on novel approaches, including forays into nanocrystalline materials. The authors all come from departments of physics in India, as does the editor, Singhal (U. of Rajasthan, Jaipur). Useful graphs and diagrams appear on every other page, along with equations.
