9783540539216: Transport and Electronic Properties (v. 2) (Springer Series in Materials Science)

Sinopsis

This text covers the basic physics and materials science of graphite intercalation compounds. The emphasis is on the layered or quasi-two-dimensional structure of these compounds, which provides an exciting arena for testing physical concepts in lower dimensions. The chapters in this second volume, all of which have been written by specialists in the field, cover the following topics: the theory of the electronic band structures and their experimental verification by a variety of experimental techniques, transport properties such as superconductivity and thermal conductivity, magnetic properties and phase transitions, and intercalation fibres, including their actual and potential applications. Together with Volume 14 of the Springer Series in Materials Science these reviews provide a comprehensive overview of the current status of the field of two-dimensional physics.

Reseña del editor

The research on graphite intercalation compounds often acts as a forerunner for research in other sciences. For instance, the concept of staging, which is fundamental to graphite intercalation compounds, is also relevant to surface science in connection with adsorbates on metal surfaces and to high-temperature superconducting oxide layer materials. Phonon-folding and mode-splitting effects are not only basic to graphite intercalation compounds but also to polytypical systems such as supercon­ ductors, superlattices, and metal and semiconductor superlattices. Charge transfer effects playa tremendously important role in many areas, and they can be most easily and fundamentally studied with intercalated graphite. This list could be augmented with many more examples. The important message, however, is that graphite inter­ calation compounds represent a class of materials that not only can be used for testing a variety of condensed-matter concepts, but also stimulates new ideas and approaches. This volume is the second of a two-volume set. The first volume addressed the structural and dynamical aspects of graphite intercalation compounds, together with the chemistry and intercalation of new compounds. This second volume provides an up-to-date status report from expert researchers on the transport, magnetic, elec­ tronic and optical properties ofthis unique class of materials. The band-structure cal­ culations of the various donor and acceptor compounds are discussed in depth, and detailed reviews are provided ofthe experimental verification ofthe electronic struc­ ture in terms of their photoemission spectra and optical properties.
