This book contains lectures delivered at the 10th Physics Summer School on “Physics of Novel Materials” at Australian National University by internationally reputed scientists. It covers a wide variety of materials: semiconductors, superconductors, polymers, zeolites, clusters and nanostructures, and transport in novel materials. It is hard to find theoretical and experimental aspects of such diverse topics on novel materials in a single volume.

• Electrons Solvated in Zeolites (N P Blake & H Metiu)
• Spin Glasses (D Sherrington)
• The Wonderful World of Carbon (S Prawer)
• Semiconductor Heterostructures (R G Elliman)
• Ion Implantation: A Nonequilibrium Process (J S Williams)
