tables most often referred to throughout the book. For the convenience of the reader,
we gather together in Tables B.12-B.21 data on some additional properties that may
be of interest, presented in the same format as the earlier tabulated data. These
include indices of refraction (Table B.12), melting points and heats of formation
(Tables B.13 and B.14), and some thermal properties such as Debye temperatures
OD, specific heats, and thermal conductivities (Tables B. 15-B. 17). The mechanical
properties tabulated are linear expansion, volume compressibility, and microhardness (Tables B.18-B.20). Finally, we list in Table B.21 the diamagnetic susceptibilities of several 111-V compounds. Some tables include more limited data entries
than others because complete data sets are not readily available for every property.
