COMPUTATIONAL STUDIES OF NEW MATERIALS

edited by Daniel A Jelski (State University of New York, Fredonia) & Thomas F George (University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point)

This important book is a collection of articles discussing computational studies of new materials. It is intended not only for workers in computational materials science, but also for people with a broader interest in the materials being discussed. The emphasis, therefore, is on the materials, and not primarily on the development of new computational tools. The specific topics covered are: surface-induced optical effects; adsorbates; crystals; semiconductors; clusters; fullerenes; fractals; and liquid helium.


Contents:

  • Ab Initio Studies of Compound Semiconductor Surfaces (T T Rantala)
  • Tight-Binding Molecular Dynamics Study of Structures and Dynamics of Carbon Fullerenes (C Z Wang et al.)
  • Ionic Charge Transport in Molecular Materials: Polymer Electrolytes (M A Ratner)
  • Atomic Valences in Aperiodic Crystals Studies by the Bond Valence Method (S van Smaalen)
  • Phase Conjugation Through Four-Wave Mixing (H F Arnoldus & T F George)
  • Nanoscale Materials: Conceptual and Computational Challenges (M V Ramakrishna)
  • and other papers


Readership: Graduates in materials science.
