Contemporary Studies in Condensed Matter Physics

Description: Condensed matter physics is an important field, not only for physicists, but also for other scientists and engineers. It encompasses all types of solid and liquid materials. Solid-state phenomena in metals, semiconductors, dielectrics, magnetic and optical materials in all their forms (crystalline, amorphous, nanocrystalline, polymer, liquid) are being intensely investigated. This is being done both for fundamental reasons, and because of the numerous actual and possible practical applications. Therefore, condensed matter physics is also the keystone of electrical, electronic and mechanical engineering, technology, and the development of its methods thus has a direct influence upon applied sciences.
