  The course introduces the students to the atomic and electronic structure of solid crystalline materials. The goal of solid-state physics is to understand the macroscopic properties (such as hardness, color, electrical conductivity, heat capacity, etc.) from the microscopic structure of the material. The lattice dynamics (phonons) of crystalline materials will be studied in oder to understand the thermal properties of matter. The electronic structure of metals, semiconductors, and insulators will be treated in detail, as well as their optical properties.                        <\/p>\n                    <\/div>\n                <\/li>\n                \n                                <li class=\"list-highlighted__item items-start\">\n                    <header class=\"list-highlighted__header\">\n                        <h5 class=\"text-18\"><strong>Course learning outcomes<\/strong><\/h5>\n                    <\/header>\n                    <div class=\"list-highlighted__body\">\n                        <p>A student who passes this course will be able to:<br>&#8211; explain the most common crystal structures and their determination by X-ray scattering<br>&#8211; describe the reaction of crystals to various stresses<br>&#8211; understand the storage and transport of heat in solids<br>&#8211; explain the difference between metals, semiconductors and insulators based on their electronic structure<br>&#8211; understand the link between optical properties and electronic excitations<br>-understand the basic concepts that dictate superconductivity<br><br>The course will enable the student to study the literature on current research topics in the field of solid-state physics.<br><\/p><br>\u00a0<br>\u00a0                    <\/div>\n                <\/li>\n                \n                                <li class=\"list-highlighted__item items-start\">\n                    <header class=\"list-highlighted__header\">\n                        <h5 class=\"text-18\"><strong>Description<\/strong><\/h5>\n                    <\/header>\n                    <div class=\"list-highlighted__body\">\n                        crystal structures (reciprocal lattice, X-ray diffraction, crystal bonds, crystal defects)<br> elastic properties (continuum mechanics, elastic tensors)<br> phonons (quantisation, dispersion, Debye and Einstein model, specific heat and heat conduction)<br> electrons (band structure, Sommerfeld model, Bloch functions, quasi free electrons, tight binding model, defects in semiconductors)<br> solid state optics (model dielectric functions, electronic transitions)<br> superconductivity<br>                    <\/div>\n                <\/li>\n                \n                \n                                <li class=\"list-highlighted__item items-start\">\n                    <header class=\"list-highlighted__header\">\n                        <h5 class=\"text-18\"><strong>Assessment<\/strong><\/h5>\n                    <\/header>\n                    <div class=\"list-highlighted__body\">\n                        <p><br>Task 1:\u00a0 home-assignment (the student must achieve at least 50% of the total possible marks to be allowed to take the oral exam).

Transport phenomena (electric current, heat transport, motion of fluids) are ubiquitous both in classical as well as in quantum physics. We will discuss the most important equations of classical transport theory (Boltzmann equation, Navier-Stokes equation). Regarding quantum systems, we will mostly focus on electronic transport for which we will use scattering theory and the theory of open quantum systems. The student will learn the basic techniques applicable to noninteracting systems (Landauer-B\u00fcttiker theory) and interacting systems (master equations, Born-Markov approximation).                        <\/p>\n                    <\/div>\n                <\/li>\n                \n                                <li class=\"list-highlighted__item items-start\">\n                    <header class=\"list-highlighted__header\">\n                        <h5 class=\"text-18\"><strong>Course learning outcomes<\/strong><\/h5>\n                    <\/header>\n                    <div class=\"list-highlighted__body\">\n                        A student who takes this course will become familiar with the most important transport phenomena, which are ubiquitous in both classical and quantum physics and engineering.

unifying umbrella, transforming the understanding of biophysics, statistical mechanics, and condensed matter theory. Quantum Information theory has emerged as a new field merging quantum physics, information theory, and computer science.<br>This course covers elements of information theory both in the classical and quantum levels. The first part introduces the elements of the classical theory, introducing various information measures and their relation to physics. The second part focuses on the quantum information science, including measurement theory, quantum metrology, quantum information processing, and quantum computation.<br>                    <\/div>\n                <\/li>\n                \n                \n                                <li class=\"list-highlighted__item items-start\">\n                    <header class=\"list-highlighted__header\">\n                        <h5 class=\"text-18\"><strong>Assessment<\/strong><\/h5>\n                    <\/header>\n                    <div class=\"list-highlighted__body\">\n                        Task 1: Written exam.<br>Task 2: Participation during CM and TD and working out assignments in TD.<br>Assessment rules: No electronic devices or lecture notes are allowed during the exam.<br>Assessment criteria:\u00a0 60% theory, 40% exercises<br>Retake exam offered<br>Retake exam rules : The retake exam will have the same format as the final exam.<br>No special conditions apply.
