This timely and unique publication is designed for graduate
students and researchers in inorganic and materials chemistry and
covers bonding models and applications of symmetry concepts to
chemical systems. The book discusses the quantum mechanical basis
for molecular orbital concepts, the connections between molecular
orbitals and localized views of bonding, group theory, bonding
models for a variety of compounds, and the extension of these ideas
to solid state materials in band theory. Unlike other books, the
concepts are made tangible to the readers by guiding them through
their implementation in MATLAB functions. No background in MATLAB
or computer programming is needed; the book will provide the
necessary skills. Key Features Visualization of the Postulates of
Quantum Mechanics to build conceptual understanding MATLAB
functions for rendering molecular geometries and orbitals
Do-it-yourself approach to building a molecular orbital and band
theory program Introduction to Group Theory harnessing the 3D
graphing capabilities of MATLAB Online access to a growing
collection of applications of the core material and other
appendices Bonding through Code is ideal for first-year graduate
students and advanced undergraduates in chemistry, materials
science, and physics. Researchers wishing to gain new tools for
theoretical analysis or deepen their understanding of bonding
phenomena can also benefit from this text. About the Author Daniel
Fredrickson is a Professor in the Department of Chemistry at the
University of Wisconsin-Madison, where his research group focuses
on understanding and harnessing the structural chemistry of
intermetallic phases using a combination of theory and experiment.
His interests in crystals, structure, and bonding can be traced to
his undergraduate research at the University of Washington (B.S. in
Biochemistry, 2000) with Prof. Bart Kahr, his Ph.D. studies at
Cornell University (2000-2005) with Profs. Stephen Lee and Roald
Hoffmann, and his post-doctoral work with Prof. Sven Lidin at
Stockholm University (2005-2008). As part of his teaching at
UW-Madison since 2009, he has worked to enhance his department's
graduate course, Physical Inorganic Chemistry I: Symmetry and
Bonding, through the incorporation of new material and the
development of computer-based exercises.
