William Barford is currently at the Physical and Theoretical Chemistry Laboratory, University of Oxford
William Barford's Electronic and Optical Properties of Conjugated Polymers is a theoretical complement to the high experimental culture of British research on conjugated polymers. Physics today What makes Electronic and Optical Properties of Conjugated Polymers as a whole so enjoyable to read is that it gives a complete overview of the influence of correlation effects on the ground and excited states of those materials. It is a comprehensive treatise aimed at theoretical physicists and chemists working on the field and at graduate students and other researchers who need to analyze their data in terms of theoretical models. The book is long overdue. Physics Today, November 2006
