Definition
Solid-State Physics – The study of the physical
structure and properties of solid matter, including electrical conduction
in metal crystals and semiconductors, superconductivity, and photoconductivity. NASA
Thesaurus, Washington, DC: National Aeronautics and Space Administration.
NASA Interest
Exhaustive Interest : All facets of solid-state
physics and the solid-state effects in electrical and electronic devices
as they relate to aeronautics, astronautics, and aerospace sciences.
Selective Interest : Commercial applications
of solid-state physics that might have a potential for use in aerospace
applications.
Negative Interest : Solid-state physics with
no application to aerospace science.
