Description
Optical Properties of Solids by Mark Fox provides an in-depth account of the optical physics of solid state materials. This textbook covers fundamental principles such as absorption, reflection, luminescence, and light scattering for a wide range of materials. The text begins with a review of classical optics before moving on to quantum theory's treatment of optical transition rates. In addition to crystalline materials, glasses, and molecular solids are also discussed. The second edition has been updated and improved, with new topics including optical control of spin, quantum dots, plasmonics, negative refraction, carbon nanostructures, and NV centres in diamond. Suitable for final year undergraduates, masters students, and researchers, this textbook is primarily written for physicists but may also be useful for electrical engineers, materials scientists, and physical chemists. The text features a clear tutorial style with worked examples, chapter summaries, and exercises.
