Summary:
The book covers the broad field of solid-state physics from the dense phases of hydrogen, through low-dimensional solids, quantum dots and nanostructures to superconductors. It provides a professional overview of solid-state physics as a real bridge between quantum mechanics and the latest technological achievements.
Contents:

Quantum single electron transistor
At the limit of device miniaturization
Classical and quantum transport calculations for elastically scattered free electron gases in 2D nanostructures when B=0
Kinetic confinement of electrons in modulated semiconductor structures
The scaling theory of the integer quantum hall effect
Single particle versus collective electronic excitations
Review of the physics of high-temperature superconductors
Charge dynamics in cuprate superconductors
Coherent precession and spin superfluidity in 3He
Diamagnetic domains in beryllium as seen by muon spin rotation spectroscopy
Growth instabilities in M.B.E.
