What Is Solid State Chemistry

Solid State Chemistry and its Applications, 2nd Edition:Student Edition is an extensive update and sequel to thebestselling textbook Basic Solid State Chemistry, theclassic text for undergraduate teaching in solid state chemistryworldwide.Solid state chemistry lies at the heart of many significantscientific advances from recent decades, including the discovery ofhigh-temperature superconductors, new forms of carbon and countlessother developments in the synthesis, characterisation andapplications of inorganic materials. Looking forward, solid statechemistry will be crucial for the development of new functionalmaterials in areas such as energy, catalysis and electronicmaterials.This revised edition of Basic Solid State Chemistry hasbeen completely rewritten and expanded to present an up-to-dateaccount of the essential topics and recent developments in thisexciting field of inorganic chemistry. About the authorAnthony West is Professor of Electroceramics and Solid State Chemistry in the Department of Materials Science & Engineering at Sheffield University. Having spent most of his academic career at the University of Aberdeen, where he developed a lifetime interest in the then-emerging field of solid state chemistry with special interest in synthesis of new oxide materials, their crystal structures and electrical properties, Professor West moved to Sheffield University in 1999 as Head of Department, a post he held until 2007. In addition to writing several bestselling books on Solid State Chemistry, Tony was founding editor of the Journal of Materials Chemistry and founding Chairman of the Materials Chemistry Forum of the Royal Society of Chemistry. He is a former President of the Inorganic Chemistry Division of IUPAC.Professor West is a Fellow of the RSC, the Institute of Physics, the Institute of Materials, Mineral and Mining, and the Royal Society of Edinburgh.
