The goal of this book is to introduce readers to Point Contact Spectroscopy. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe physical principles of spectroscopy of quasi-particle excitations in metals at low temperatures by means of point contacts are presented. The point contact constitutes a tiny metallic bridge connecting bulk electrodes. Along with the most thoroughly studied phonon excitations, the interaction of electrons with other quasiparticles (magnons, crystal-field electron excitations, paramagnetic impurities, two-level systems, etc), are reviewed. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eVarious experimental techniques for point contact production are described. Examples of point-contact spectra are presented for pure metals, alloys and compounds, as well as for semimetals and semiconductors, high-Tc and other exotic superconductors, heavy fermion systems, Kondo-lattices, mixed valence compounds and more. Special attention is paid to contact conductance behavior in superconducting states, in high magnetic fields and under high-frequency radiation. The theoretical part of the book is restricted to presenting the main relations without superfluous details. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePoint-Contact Spectroscopy includes more than 200 figures.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Springer","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45274178289815,"sku":"9781441919380","price":7345.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781441919380.webp?v=1769279127","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/point-contact-spectroscopy-9781441919380","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
