Defects and Disorder in Crystalline and Amorphous Solids edited by Richard Catlow.

The study of defects and disorder in solids remains a central topic in solid state science. Developments in the field continue to be promoted by new experimental and theoretical techniques, while further impetus for the study of disorder in solids is provided by the growing range of applications of...
