Synopsis
* An applied focus for electrical engineers and materials scientists. * Theoretical results supported with real-world systems and applications. * Includes worked examples and self-study questions. * Solutions manual available., Dieses Lehrbuch der Quantenmechanik ist nicht für Physiker, sondern vorrangig für Elektroingenieure und Materialwissenschaftler gedacht. Entsprechend werden die theoretischen Konzepte durch praxisrelevante Beispiele, etwa aus der Halbleiterherstellung oder der Entwicklung von Quantencomputern, illustriert. Mit durchgearbeiteten Beispielen und Kontrollfragen für das Selbststudium; ein Lösungsheft ist erhältlich., An Applied Approach to Quantum Mechanics Quantum mechanics is vitally important in the study and design of semiconductor devices. The latest electronic and photonic devices have quantum mechanics at their core, and the emergence of quantum computing further increases the engineering importance of the subject. In contrast to the usual theoretical or experimental treatments of quantum physics, Introductory Applied Quantum and Statistical Mechanics approaches the subject from the point of view of an electrical engineer or materials scientist. Equally useful as a reference for the practitioner and as a text, Introductory Applied Quantum and Statistical Mechanics introduces the reader to the fundamental concepts of quantum physics and their applications to electrical engineering, applied physics, and materials science. Developed from an introductory graduate course in the EECS Department at MIT, this book is structured with an eye towards how the laws enable one to design and build new and better devices. Throughout, theoretical results are supported with real-world systems and applications, and mastery of the material is assisted by worked examples and self-study questions. A unique and useful resource, this book is a valuable tool for anyone seeking to apply the principles of quantum mechanics to the development of practical technical solutions., Quantum mechanics is vitally important in the study and design of semiconductor devices and in the emerging field of quantum computing. Whereas most quantum mechanics books are written for a physics audience, this book is aimed at electrical engineers and materials scientists.

- a***n (43)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseMistakenly ordered a paperback that I thought was a hardcover, not sellers fault; it was described properly on the listing. Seller still processed a refund the day I went to return the item and let me keep the item anyway. A+++ service. Book arrived quickly in great condition and for a great price. Thank you so much! Amazing seller!
- n***c (94)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseseller was communicative about my shipment, media mail took a while and tracking wasn't updated frequently, but seller communicated to me very quickly on status. the item came new and wrapped as described, though the packaging in it was packed wasn't sturdy and falling apart when it got to me.
