The book covers the basic concepts, theories, and experiments about the structure of solids and their electrical, magnetic, thermal, sonic, and optical properties. The author traces the history of solid state physics in the discussion of chemical bonds and crystal formation, lattice vibration and phonon, magnetism and spin, dielectric constant and refraction index. An easy and student-friendly text, this book can be of great help to engineering and computer science students in view of the important role of Solid State Physics in modern technology: the energy band theory is essential to the understanding of CMOS in the computer processor unit.
