This book introduces quantum mechanics to
scientists and engineers. The level and approach are aimed at anyone
with a reasonable scientific or technical background looking for a solid
but accessible introduction to the subject. The coverage and depth are
substantial enough for a first quantum mechanics course for physicists.
At the same time, the level of required background in physics and
mathematics has been kept to a minimum to suit those from other science
and engineering backgrounds.
With the growing interest in
nanotechnology, quantum mechanics has recently become increasingly
important for an ever-widening range of engineering disciplines, such as
electrical and mechanical engineering, and for subjects such as
materials science that underlie many modern devices.
