Solid-state chemistry refers to that branch of chemistry which deals with the multidisciplinary study of the properties, synthesis, and structure of various solid-state materials. It is closely linked with other branches of chemistry like crystallography, metallurgy, solid-state physics, ceramics, materials science, thermodynamics, and electronics, etc. This book explores all the important aspects of solid-state chemistry in the present day scenario. The topics covered in this extensive text deal with the core subjects of the subject. Fundamental approaches, evaluations and methodologies have been included in it. This textbook is a complete source of knowledge on the present status of this important field.
