Solid State Physics

Solid State Physics gained importance since XRD and periodic nature of crystals were discovered. In this book it has been tried to cover the UGC syllabus for B.Sc. and some part of Solid State Physics of the unspecialized general course of M.Sc. in a handy manner. The topics covered in this book include Crystal Structure Concept of Reciprocal lattice X-Ray Diffraction Lattice Vibration and Phonons Specific heat capacity of solids Magnetism and Superconductivity. This book has been written in the interest of all those students who cannot afford costly books. The language is simple clear and lucid such that the readers or students can understand easily without any difficulty.
