Outline and Purpose of the Course Solid state physics is a discipline that provides an understanding about the properties of matter from a microscopic perspective through atoms, molecules, and so forth. The discipline also forms the academic foundation for understanding the properties of important material substances applied in engineering. In order to allow students to study the behavior of lattices and electrons, which form the basis of solid state physics, lectures give explanations based on quantum theory to provide students with an understanding of the basics of solid state physics.
Course Goals The purpose of lectures is to help students deepen their understanding of how photons, electrons, and particles (the most important components of solid state physics) interact with matter from a microscopic perspective.
Schedule and Contents Introduction, 1 session: basic components of solid state physics, such as crystal structure and crystal types, are reviewed
Crystal structure, 3 sessions: crystal, reciprocal lattice, unit lattice
Free electron theory, 3 sessions: wave function and energy state of a one-dimensional free electron, Fermi surface
Valence theory, 2 sessions: Bloch theorem, Brillouin zone, Laue equations, diffraction, and structural factors
Phonons and photons, 2 sessions: Kramers?Kronig relations, Drude theory, electron gas, plasmons
Semiconductors, 1 session: bandgap, electrons and holes, intrinsic semiconductors, impurity doping, and electron conduction
Junction theory, 2 sessions: surface electron conduction, P-N junction, M-S junction
Confirmation of learning achieved, 2 sessions: The degree to which students have successfully learned about solid-state physics based on quantum mechanics is confirmed.
Evaluation Methods and Policy Evaluation is given based on reports (20 marks) and an examination (80 marks).
Course Requirements It would be preferable for students to take teaching sessions in solid-state physics in advance.
Study outside of Class (preparation and review) Students must study assignments properly.
When appropriate, students are given report assignments and are required to submit them along with review lecture materials.
Textbooks Textbooks/References Others; outlines are distributed during teaching sessions
