PHYS 406 - Solid State Physics


Units: 3
Three hours lecture per week
Prerequisite(s): PHYS 306 
Provides an introduction to the physical properties of solids, and their importance in high-tech applications. Focuses on the fundamental, unifying concepts and experimental techniques important in understanding the properties of nuclei and electrons in solids. Considers crystals defects that often control the actual properties of materials. The subjects are chosen to establish the basic principles, to describe phenomena that are responsible for the importance of solids in science and technology, and to include topics of current research.
