The Electronic Structure of Boron Compounds

  • Chapter
Boron and Refractory Borides

Abstract

The problem of elucidating the electronic structure of compounds ranks high in their theoretical development. Knowledge of the electronic structure of various compounds clears the way for further progress not only in theory but also in material manufacture. It is thus natural that simultaneously with the investigation of physico-chemical properties of borides, scientists should also investigate their electronic structure models.
