An overview of the optical effects in solids, addressing the
physics of various materials and their response to electromagnetic
radiation. The discussion includes metals, semiconductors,
superconductors, and insulators. The book begins by introducing the
dielectric function into Maxwell's macroscopic equations and
finding their plane-wave solution. The physics governing the
dielectric function of various materials is then covered, both
classically and using basic quantum mechanics. Advanced topics
covered include interacting electrons, the anomalous skin effect,
anisotropy, magneto-optics, and inhomogeneous materials. Each
subject begins with a connection to the basic physics of the
particular solid, after which the measurable optical quantities are
derived. It allows the reader to connect measurements (reflectance,
optical conductivity and dielectric function) with the underlying
physics of solids. Methods of analysing experimental data are
addressed, making this an ideal resource for students and
researchers interested in solid state physics, optics, and
materials science.
