Most calculations of electronic properties are done using density functional theory (DFT) with the local-density approximaion (LDA), a very successful method for approximately reducing the full ...
Condensed matter physics has fast become the largest discipline within physics ... Modern topics of current interest are explored in-depth, helping students prepare for cutting-edge research. These ...
In this book the discussion moves from the historical context of the discovery of the electron and its basic properties, to the Dirac equation, bonding in condensed matter, Fermi and non-Fermi liquids ...
In the 1930s, physicist Eugene Wigner predicted that electrons could be coaxed into stillness at low densities and cold temperatures, forming an electron ... this motion in condensed matter ...
Electrons typically travel at high speeds, zipping through matter unbound. In the 1930s, physicist Eugene Wigner predicted that electrons could be coaxed into stillness at low densities and cold ...
