NUMERICAL PROBLEMS IN SOLID STATE PHYSICS presents a collection of solved examples, unsolved review problems and multiple type of questions on different topics of Solid State Physics/Condensed Matter. The author felt the need of such a book in view of the fact of growing number of competitive examinations at various levels conducted by universities, UGC/CSIR, UPSC, etc. where the questions are generally of numerical in nature. This book contains twelve chapters on different topics of Solid State Physics/ Condensed Matter and dealt with more than seven hundred solved examples and unsolved problems. This book will be extremely helpful to the faculty members associated with the field, the students of B.Sc (H), M.Sc and B.Tech related subjects and the students appearing in various competitive examinations.

• Simple presentation • Examples are based on various fundamental concepts
