Descripción
Sumario:This Second Edition provides solid state scientists, who are not necessarily experts in crystallography, with an understandable and comprehensive guide to the new International Tables for Crystallography. The basic ideas of symmetry, lattices, point groups, and space groups are explained in a clear and detailed manner. Notation is introduced in a step-by-step way so that the reader is supplied with the tools necessary to derive and apply space group information. Of particular interest in this second edition are the discussions of space groups application to such timely topics as high-temperature superconductors, phase transitions, semiconductor superlattices, incommensurate modulation, and icosahedral symmetry. Key Features * Explains the use of space groups to non-crystallographers * Applies space groups to current topics, such as high-temperature superconductors and phase transitions * Includes extensive appendixes, covering all aspects of space groups, including incommensurate modulations and disorder.
