Modern Engneering Physics

Althought Concepts of Modern Physics was the first book covering the syllabi of punjab technical university,Jalandhar and it was accepted whole-heartedly by students and teachers alike.However,due to the repeated changes of sullabi of P.T.U. as it being a new university,the book had to be revised and some of the chapters become redundant as these were replaced by new topics.Though the book was revised with the additional chapters,the discarded chapters also formed the part of the book.

The book in its present form is due to my interaction with the students for quite a long time.It had been my long-cherished desire to write a book covering most of the topics that form the syllabii of the Engineering and Science students at the degree level.Many students,although able to understand the various topics of the books,may not be able to put their knowledge to use.For this purpose a number of questions and problems are given at the end of each chapter.

Linking physics fundamentals to modern technology-a highly applied primer for students and engineers Reminding us that modern inventions-new materials, information technologies, medical technological breakthroughs-are based on well-established fundamental principles of physics, Jasprit Singh integrates important topics from quantum mechanics, statistical thermodynamics, and materials science, as well as the special theory of relativity. He then goes a step farther and applies these fundamentals to the workings of electronic devices-an essential leap for anyone interested in developing new technologies. From semiconductors to nuclear magnetic resonance to superconducting materials to global positioning systems, Professor Singh draws on wide-ranging applications to demonstrate each concept under discussion. He downplays extended mathematical derivations in favor of results and their real-world design implication, supplementing the book with nearly 100 solved examples, 120 figures, and 200 end-of-chapter problems. Modern Physics for Engineers provides engineering and physics students with an accessible, unified introduction to the complex world underlying today's design-oriented curriculums. It is also an extremely useful resource for engineers and applied scientists wishing to take advantage of research opportunities in diverse fields.

With more than 100 years of combined teaching experience and PhDs in particle, nuclear, and condensed-matter physics, these three authors could hardly be better qualified to write this introduction to modern physics. They have combined their award-winning teaching skills with their experience writing best-selling textbooks to produce a readable and comprehensive account of the physics that has developed over the last hundred years and led to today's ubiquitous technology. Assuming the knowledge of a typical freshman course in classical physics, they lead the reader through relativity, quantum mechanics, and the most important applications of both of these fascinating theories.

The book is present form is due to the outcome of excellent received for the Author's Book "Modern Engineering Physics" which is prescribed in M.D. University, Rohtak and Kurushetra university and other universities of Haryana. In order to make the book more useful and strictly as per the syllabi of Haryana Universities, most of the topics have been revised

This text/reference provides students, practicing engineers, and scientists with the fundamental physical laws and modern applications used in industry. Unlike many of its competitors, modern physics theory (e.g., quantum physics) and its applications are discussed in detail, including laser techniques and fiber optics, nuclear fusion, digital electronics, wave optics, and more. An extensive review of Boolean algebra and logic gates is also included. Because of its in-text examples with solutions and self-study exercise sets, the book can be used as a refresher for engineering licensing exams or as a full year course. It emphasizes only the level of mathematics needed to master concepts used in industry.
