{"product_id":"metallic-chains-chains-of-michael-springborg-9780444513809","title":"Metallic Chains \/ Chains of Metals: Volume 1","description":"The present book describes a large variety of different types of chain systems (nanowires), including shorter chains that are artificially produced for instance in break-junction experiments, chains synthesized as guests inside the channels of a host crystal, crystalline chain compounds, organic polymers (synthetic metals), and charge-transfer salts, thus covering an unusual wealth of systems. Both experimental and theoretical studies are discussed. Particular emphasis is put on illustrating the special phenomena that occur in such quasi-one-dimensional systems, and how theoretical and experimental efforts have been used in identifying those properties that are specific for truly one-dimensional systems from those of quasi-one-dimensional systems. Moreover, it is shown that metallic chains can be found in a large range of systems, but also that chains of metals not always are metallic.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Michael Springborg,Yi Dong\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0444513809\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780444513809\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Elsevier Science\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/01\/2006\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 274\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.39lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.69h x 6.57w x 0.67d","brand":"Michael Springborg","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48112905748735,"sku":"9780444513809","price":230.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_9058fee4-67e6-49e7-b048-92205fb3204a.jpg?v=1769611738","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/metallic-chains-chains-of-michael-springborg-9780444513809","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
