OXFORD MASTER
SERIES
IN CONDENSED MATTER
PHYSICS
liooks in
this series are written at
the tinal year undergraduate and
beginning graduate level, and provide
straightforward introductions to key
topics in physics today. Background
material and applications as well as
pointers to more advanced work are
included, along with ample tutorial
material, examples, illustrations, chapter
summaries, and graded problem sets
(with some answers and hints).
The second edition of this successful textbook provides an up-to-date account of the optical
physics of solid-state materials.The basic principles of absorption, reflection, luminescence, and
light scattering are covered for a wide range of materials, including insulators, semiconductors,
and metals.The text starts with a review of classical optics, and then moves on to the treatment
of optical transition rates by quantum theory. In addition to the traditional discussion of crystalline
materials, glasses and molecular solids are also covered.
The first edition included a number of subjects that are not normally covered in standard texts,
notably semiconductor quantum wells, molecular materials, vibronic solid-state lasers, and nonlinear
optics.The basic structure of the second edition is unchanged, but all of the chapters have been
updated and improved. Futherniore, a number of important new topics have been added, including:
optical control of spin
·
quantum dots
·
plasmomcs
·
negative refraction
·
carbon nanostructures
(graphene, nanotubes and
fullerenes)
·
NV
centres in diamond.
The text is aimed at final year undergraduates, masters students, and researchers. It is mainly
written for physicists, but might also be useful for electrical engineers, materials scientists, and
physical chemists.The topics are written in a clear tutorial style with worked examples, chapter
summaries, and exercises. A solutions manual is available on request for instructors.
Mark Fox is Professor of Optical Physics at the University of Sheffield.
'Fox has succeeded in offering a good, compact, senior level presentation of the optical properties of
