The textbooks
"Solid State Theory" is a comprehensive two-volume textbook that provides an introduction to modern solid state physics. Volume 1 serves as a foundational course, assuming prerequisite knowledge in classical mechanics, electromagnetism, and particularly quantum mechanics and statistical physics. Within this volume, the second quantization formalism, essential for addressing many-body effects, is introduced and utilized. The content of Volume 1 delves into classical domains of solid state physics, encompassing phonons and electrons within a periodic potential, the Bloch theorem, the Hartree-Fock approximation, density functional theory, and electron-phonon interactions. This volume is well-suited for undergraduate students seeking to expand their knowledge beyond the basic theoretical physics curriculum and gain familiarity with an application area of theoretical physics, such as Theoretical (Solid State) Physics or as a foundation for a Bachelor thesis. Furthermore, it is essential for solid-state physicists engaged in experimental research to have a solid understanding of the theoretical methods covered in Volume 1.
Volume 1 can serve as the basis for a module titled Solid State Physics within the Master program in Physics, or in combination with the content of Volume 2, for a module titled Theoretical Solid State Physics or Advanced Theoretical Physics.
Turning to Volume 2, it delves into diverse application areas, ranging from superconductivity and magnetism to contemporary research topics such as the quantum Hall effect, high-temperature superconductivity, and low-dimensional structures. This volume caters to students and researchers interested in exploring the forefront of solid state physics.
In summary, "Solid State Theory" serves as an invaluable resource for students and professionals seeking to gain a comprehensive understanding of modern solid state physics. Volume 1 provides a solid foundation in theoretical physics, while Volume 2 explores cutting-edge application areas and forefront research topics, making it an essential tool for advancing knowledge in this field.
