Quantum Mechanics of the Chemical Bond
by Peter E. Blöchl
Publisher: TU Clausthal 2014
Number of pages: 242
Description:
This book shall provide some chemical insight for physicist and material scientists. It is devoted to simple concepts that only require back-on-the-envelope calculations. The emphasis is on qualitative considerations instead of accurate predictions. The book attempts to provide a structure into the thinking about materials properties and reactive processes.
