Physics of New Materials After the discoveries and applications of superconductors, new ceramics, amorphous and nano-materials, shape memory and other intelligent materials, physics became more and more important, comparable with chemistry, in the research and development of advanced materials. In this book, several important fields of physics-oriented new-materials research and physical means of analyses are selected and their fundamental principles and methods are described in a simple and understandable way. It is suitable as a textbook for university materials science courses.
Introductory Survey -- Electronic Structure and Properties of Transition Metal Systems -- Structure Characterization of Solid-State Amorphized Material by X-Ray and Neutron Diffraction -- Nanophase Materials -- Intercalation Compunds of Transition-Metal Dichalcogenides -- Strucutural Phase Transformation -- The Place of Atomic Order in the Physics of Solids and in Metallurgy -- Usefulness of Electron Microscopy -- Mössbauer Spectroscopy in Materials Science -- Physics of New Materials.
