Solid State Chemistry: A Modern Approach - by Bernadett Kent (Hardcover)

About the Book

Solid state chemistry is the study of the structure, properties and, synthesis of solid materials, with a focus on the creation and characterization of the constituent particles of novel materials. Solids are classified into two main categories based on the arrangement of their particles and the degree of order: crystalline and amorphous solids. A variety of techniques are employed to investigate these properties, including methods such as gas reactions, melting techniques, solution methods, and chemie douce. This field intersects with many other disciplines like thermodynamics, crystallography, solid-state physics, ceramics, materials science, and electronics. This book is compiled in such a manner that it will provide in-depth knowledge about the theory and practice of solid state chemistry. While understanding the long-term perspectives of the topics, it makes an effort in highlighting their impact as a modern tool for the growth of the discipline. This book, with its detailed analyses and data, will prove immensely beneficial to professionals and students involved in this area at various levels.
