Introduction to Solid State Physics
Number of ECTS credits: 6
Course Classification: Science, Technology, and Engineering

Course Description:
The course will introduce students to the basic notions of solid-state physics such as: periodic crystal lattices, phonons, Bloch theorem, properties of electronic bands in metals, semiconductors and insulators, conduction properties of various materials, the notion of Fermi-surface in metals, and magnetic phase transitions. Dependent on the level of the students, the course may also touch the topics of disordered solids, superconductors, and advanced experimental techniques. Upon availability, the course may include several laboratory experiments.
The course is intended for students who either never had a solid-state physics course or feel the need to strengthen the foundations of the subject. It is to be assumed that students previously had basic courses of quantum mechanics and statistical physics, but the relevant knowledge will be reintroduced whenever necessary.
The course will have a character of review. Lectures will cover the most important aspects of every topic, leaving a significant fraction of material for self-study and homework.

Intended Learning Outcomes:
Become fluent in the basic concepts of solid-state physics
Understand the approximate character of these concepts and recognize their applicability limits.
Get practical experience to the framework of basic solid-state models.
Improve their skills in applications of quantum mechanics and statistical physics.

Advanced Solid State Physics
Number of ECTS credits: 6
Course Classification: Science, Technology, and Engineering

Course description:
The course is a part of the educational program in quantum materials. It can also be chosen as an elective for the programs in photonics and material science.

Prerequisites:
Basic knowledge of quantum mechanics and statistical physics;
Recommended courses: Course «Introduction to Solid-State Physics», or a comparable course.
