Electronic Properties of Inorganic Quasi-One-Dimensional Compounds

The close relationship between experimentalists and theorists – whether solid state chemists or physicists – has, in the last few years, inspired much research in the field of materials with quasi one-dimensional structures.

Part II of this two-volume set deals with the experimental treatment of pseudo-one-dimensional conductors. Included are contributions on platinum chains, (SN)_x and (SNBr_y)x, the optical properties of 1-D inorganic metals, CDW transport in transition metal chalcogenides, and a lattice dynamical study of transition metal trichalcogenides.

"[...] a very good and detailed overview of recent research[...] The books will be of interest principally to graduate students and research workers in the field." (Physics Bulletin, September 1986)
