Materials Science and Technology A Comprehensive Treatment Edited by R.W. Cahn, P. Haasen, E.J. Kramer The 18-volume series ‘Materials Science and Technology' is the first in-depth, topic-oriented reference work devoted to this growing interdisciplinary field. A compendium of current, state-of-the-art information, it covers the most important classes of materials: metals, ceramics, glasses, polymers, semiconductors, and composites. Each volume deals with properties, processing, applications, or general phenomena associated with these materials. Edited by internationally renowned figures in materials science, this series is sure to establish itself as a seminal work. Volume 3A: The first of two volumes in this series to deal with the electronic and magnetic properties of metals and ceramics, Volume 3A encompasses traditional topics in solid-state physics and chemistry as well as extraordinary recent advances in materials research. Topics included are: electronic structure calculations • magneto-optical properties of metals, alloys, and compounds • electronic transport properties of normal metals • superconductivity • magnetic properties of metal systems • ultra thin films and superlattices • Fermi surfaces in strongly correlated electron systems
