Quantum Theory of Conducting Matter: Newtonian Equations of Motion for a Bloch Electron (Repost)
Quantum Theory of Conducting Matter: Newtonian Equations of Motion for a Bloch Electron by Shigeji Fujita
English | PDF | 2007 | 249 Pages | ISBN : 038774102X | 3.9 MB
In a complex field, this work is a first. The authors make an important connection between the conduction electrons and the Fermi surface in an elementary manner in the text. No currently available text explains this connection. They do this by deriving Newtonian equations of motion for the Bloch electron and diagonalizing the inverse mass (symmetric) tensor. The authors plan to follow up this book with a second, more advanced book on superconductivity and the Quantum Hall Effect.
