Physical Properties of Crystals: An Introduction
John Wiley and Sons Ltd, May 2007, Pages: 453
This book broadly imparts the knowledge necessary to comprehend the manifold peculiarities of crystalline substances. In this second, completely revised and updated edition, the author focuses on the detailed discussion of the physical properties of two- and three dimensional crystals and provides practical aspects with respect to their measurement.
Much space is devoted to a coherent and comprehensive introduction to tensor calculation. The description of optical properties, electrical, thermal, and magnetic characteristics includes many recent developments, such as the Giant Magneto Resistance. The text is supplemented by numerous exercises with their solutions.
About the Author:
Siegfried Haussühl, born in 1927, studied physics and chemistry at the University of Tübingen, Germany, where he received his Ph.D. in 1956. He subsequently became assistant lecturer at the same Institute, where he also qualified as a professor. In 1959, he was appointed to a professorship in crystallography at the University of Freiburg, and after five years changed to a similar position at the University of Cologne. Here, he became the Director of the institute and kept this appointment until 1993.
Professor Haussühl was awarded the Ernst Abbe prize of the German Mineralogical Society and the Carl Hermann Medal of the German Crystallographic Society. He has published more than 270 refereed papers and is co-founder resp. founder of such prominent societies as the German Society of Crystallography (DGK) and the German Association for Crystal Growth (DGKK). He was chief editor of the journal Zeitschrift für Kristallographie and Editorial Board member of various other scientific journals such as Crystal Research and Technology.
