Contents:
Quantum and Classical Waves -- Wave Scattering and the Coherent Potential Approximation -- Coherent Waves and Effective Media -- Diffusive Waves -- The Coherent Backscattering Effect -- Renormalized Diffusion -- The Scaling Theory of Localization -- Localized States and the Approach to Localization -- Localization Phenomena in Electronic Systems -- Mesoscopic Phenomena.
In: Springer eBooksSummary: Waves represent a classic topic of study in physics, mathematics, and engineering. Many modern technologies are based on our understanding of waves and their interaction with matter. In the past thirty years there have been some revolutionary developments in the study of waves. The present volume is the only available source which details these developments in a systematic manner, with the aim of reaching a broad audience of non-experts. It is an important resource book for those interested in understanding the physics underlying nanotechnology and mesoscopic phenomena, as well as for bridging the gap between the textbooks and research frontiers in any wave related topic. A special feature of this volume is the treatment of classical and quantum mechanical waves within a unified framework, thus facilitating an understanding of similarities and differences between the two.
