New branch of solid-state physics
Abstract
Research in solid-state physics branched out in a new direction, concerning highly excited states in crystals, upon publication of the article, Atom Vacancy States in Crystals. Perturbation theory and translational symmetry not being applicable here, new concepts had to be developed. Any distortion of the crystal structure must be treated not simply as a defect but as an allowed state genetically latent within the electron energy spectrum of a crystal. Five articles on the subject have been published: Highly Excited States in Crystals; Spectrum of Excited States and Vortical Mechanical Field in Deformed Crystal; Modification of Properties of Metals by High Power Ion Beams; Anomalous Hall Effect in Disordered Ferromagnetic Alloys of Transition Metals; and Restructurization of Atomic Condensed State Under Strong External Influencing Action. These articles are briefly discussed.
