Solved Problems in Solid State Physics contains more than five hundred solved problems and covers the latest developments in the area of solid state physics, including recent findings on topics including high temperature superconductivity and nanomaterials. The book fuses pedagogical introductions and sections of worked problems to guide students on their physics education journey. Dr. Asokamani has published textbooks on solid physics which incorporate much content on fundamentals and theory, and this book is an expansion on these topics, concentrating fully on worked problems. This will enable students, research scholars, and faculty members to gain a better understanding on the principles involved in various topics and their varied applications. The numerical values provided at the end of the problems will grant them insight into practical applications of real engineering applications. Solved Problems in Solid State Physics contains solved problems, with the multiple choice questions numbering around eight hundred. This book is a culmination of years of teaching and research for more than four decades. Over one hundred books and journals have been referred to in the preparation of this book, and references and resources are clearly stated in each chapter. Problems have been chosen in the areas of solid state physics, material science and metallurgy, and ancillary material provides detailed theory and lectures summarizing the problems.

Dr. R. Asokamani is a faculty member of physics with 45 years of teaching and research experience. He has teaching experience in solid state physics, materials science, physical metallurgy and mechanical metallurgy. His main areas of research include band theory, high pressure, superconductivity, aerospace and biomaterials as well as nanomaterials. He has produced 14 PhDs in these areas and has published more than 100 research papers. Dr. Asokamani has been a guest scientist at ICTP, Italy and has given lectures in universities / institutes / laboratories in USA, Germany, France, Italy and Yugoslavia. He has given invited talks at several conferences. He was awarded a NASA grant to present a paper at MRSI conference on ductility enhancement of Ti alloys. He was a Fellow of The American Physical Society and was the President of the Tamil Nadu Academy of Sciences (now known as Academy Sciences, Chennai). He has published two books on Solid State Physics as well. Dr. Asokamani has conducted several national and international conferences on electronic structure calculations and properties of materials and material science and applications. He was chosen as a guest editor for a special section to publish works on Ti alloys, by the Journal of Materials, Processes and Applications.
