Engineering Physics

by Uma Mukherji

Beginning with basic principles like thermionic emission, photoelectric effect and thermoelectric effect, this text covers advanced topics like holography (3-dimensional photography), fibre optics communication, electron microscope, and superconductivity. The technical aspects and applications of semiconductor devices, transistors, C.R.O., and underlying principles and mechanisms are explained with energy level diagrams along with crystal structures, different properties of materials and the background reasons behind why a particular element possesses a particular structure (ligancy). The other topics include process of formation of colour in thin films, high energy particle accelerator, mass spectograph, quantum physics, nuclear physics and the underlying process behind nuclear explosions.
