Superconductivity is an encyclopedic treatment of all aspects of the subject, from classic materials to fullerenes. Emphasis is on balanced coverage, with a comprehensive reference list and significant graphicsfrom all areas of the published literature. Widely used theoretical approaches are explained in detail. Topics of special interest include high temperature superconductors, spectroscopy, critical states, transport properties, and tunneling. Key Features * Extensive and detailed tables of properties * Substantial art program * In-depth treatment of bucky balls (fullerenes) * Excellent chapter on spectroscopy * Provides a comprehensive discussion of fullerene superconductivity * Emphasizes high-temperature superconductivity * Includes numerous tables with extensive up-to-date data on various superconductors
