Can I read Predicting New Materials and Their Properties on EtoBox?
Predicting New Materials and Their Properties by Marvin L Cohen is a Physics and Astronomy article available to read on EtoBox.
What is Predicting New Materials and Their Properties about?
For a large fraction of solids, it is now possible to construct a useful firstprinciples model which is sufficiently robust to explain and predict physical properties and to predict the existence of new materials. This "standard model" is described and its use in the development of empirical theories and in determining properties of novel materials are discussed along with some historical perspectives about this area of physics. Examples are given of applications to semiconductors, high pressure properties of solids, superconductivity, nanotubes and nanodevices, fullerenes and superhard materials. Speculations about future developments are also given.
Who reads Predicting New Materials and Their Properties?
It is typically read by researchers, students, and practitioners in Physics and Astronomy.
