Solid State Which Introductory Solid State Physics Book from Springer is Best?

[chimay]

I have the opportunity to get a Springer book for free, provided that it is cheaper than 200$. I am considering an introductory one about Solid State Physics, but I have never heard about a valid one from Springer (I know about Kittel, Ashcroft and Simon only). Do you have any suggestion?

Thank you very much!

Just search via Springer Link:

There are of course very many books about condensed-matter/solid-state physics from this publisher.

Thank you vanhees71. I know there are tons of solid state physics book published by Springer; I was looking for a recommendation for a particularly valid one. Thank you anyway!

Well, I'm not so familiar with condensed-matter physics and the literature. My favorite is Altland's textbook but that's not published by Springer.

Here’s one

John J. Quinn, Kyung-Soo Yi
Solid State Physics, Principles and Modern Applications
Springer 2018
https://link.springer.com/book/10.1007/978-3-319-73999-1

It’s made it to second edition which is a good sign. Notice that you can download the front matter.

Edit: After searching I also found
Patterson and Bailey

Ibach and Luth

This one seems like a companion book.
