<br/><br/> "Reminding us that modern inventions - new materials, information technologies, medical technological breakthroughs - are based on well-established fundamental principles of physics, Jasprit Singh integrates important topics from quantum mechanics, statistical thermodynamics, and materials science, as well as the special theory of relativity. He then goes a step farther and applies these fundamentals to the workings of electronic devices - an essential leap for anyone interested in developing new technologies."--BK JACKET. "Modern Physics for Engineers provides engineering and physics students with an accessible, unified introduction to the complex world underlying today's design-oriented curriculums. It is also an extremely useful resource for engineers and applied scientists wishing to take advantage of research opportunities in diverse fields."--BK JACKET.
