Few areas of science are as interdisciplinary as materials science.
Chemistry, physics, mechanical engineering, and mathematics each
play a part within it. The role of physics is to describe the
objects, effects and phenomena at different scales (micro-, meso-,
and macroscopic) as precisely as possible.
Physics of Materials addresses this description at the elementary
level. Based on an undergraduate level course taught at the Ecole
Polytechnique, France, the main emphasis is on the conduction
related phenomena (electronic properties) and the plastic behavior
(ionic properties) of materials, such as metals and alloys,
semiconductors, and ceramics. It assumes a basic grounding in
statistical physics, quantum mechanics and elasticity but does not
require prior knowledge of solid-state physics, to which it will
serve as a useful introduction.
The presentation of the course is followed by several examination
problems, with solutions, which cover various specific applications
of the general concepts and which will enable readers to test their
understanding of these concepts.
