In this update of the 1989 edition, Lovett (physics, U. of Essex) elucidates the use of single crystals so essential to the performance of solid-state devices. A new chapter on optoelectronics reflects the increasing importance of non-linear optics. Includes worked examples; problems with answers; diagrams; and appendices on the number of independent components, diagonalization of a tensor, and tensor properties (in table form).
