It provides precise and fundamental understandings on the electronic states in ideal low-dimensional systems and finite crystals, and offers new insights into some of the basic problems in low-dimensional systems, such as the surface states and quantum confinement effects, etc., some of which are quite different from what is traditionally believed in the solid state physics community. Many previous predictions have been confirmed in subsequent investigations by other authors on various relevant problems. In this new edition, the theory is further extended to one-dimensional photonic crystals and phononic crystals, and a general theoretical formalism for investigating the existence and properties of surface states/modes in semi-infinite one-dimensional crystals is developed. In addition, there are various revisions and improvements, including using the Kronig-Penney model to illustrate the analytical theory and make it easier to understand. This book is a valuable resource for solid-state physicists and material scientists.Springer Tracts in Modern Physics,0081-3869 ;270Nanoscale scienceNanoscienceNanostructuresCrystallographyMaterials—SurfacesThin filmsOpticsElectrodynamicsAcousticsNanoscale Science and Technologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P25140Crystallography and Scattering Methodshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P25056Surfaces and Interfaces, Thin Filmshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Z19000Classical Electrodynamicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P21070Acousticshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P21069Nanoscale science.Nanoscience.Nanostructures.Crystallography.Materials—Surfaces.Thin films.Optics.Electrodynamics.Acoustics.Nanoscale Science and Technology.Crystallography and Scattering Methods.Surfaces and Interfaces, Thin Films.Classical Electrodynamics.Acoustics.548.85Ren Shang Yuanauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut933733MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910254594803321Electronic States in Crystals of Finite Size2102085UNINA
