Solid State Textbook for Computational Solid-State Physics?

Click For Summary
Graduate students seeking to learn computational solid-state physics are looking for textbooks that cover the subject alongside the time-dependent semiconductor Bloch equations. Recommended texts include "Computational Solid State Physics: An Introduction" by Ronald Melrose and "Computer Simulation of Condensed Phases in Complex Geometries" by Denis Ullmo. Other notable suggestions are "Computational Methods for Electron-Phonon Interactions" by Dario Alfe and "Computational Quantum Mechanics for Materials Engineers" by Kai Nordlund. Additionally, "Computational Solid State Physics: From First Principles to Finite Temperatures" by Giuseppe Senatore and "Introduction to Computational Solid State Physics" by Richard Martin are also mentioned. These resources provide a solid foundation for understanding computational approaches in solid-state physics.

I'm a graduate student and am interested in learning computational solid-state physics.

Ideally, I'd like a textbook which covers solid-state physics and the time-dependent semiconductor Bloch equations from a computational perspective.

Does anybody have any suggestions?

Many years ago, as the internet was coming of age, I burned over 500 pounds of technical manuals. I realized I can look things up on the internet faster than I can find something in a technical manual. And just about anything I might need could be found online. But letting go of my several shelves worth of college text and other science books is another matter. I can't bring myself to get rid of them but there is very little if anything I can't find online now. Books are heavy and a pain...
