TFFY70	Physics of Condensed Matter part I, ECTS-points /MATERIEFYSIK, inledande kurs/ Advancement level: C
	Aim: The course should provide the student knowledge about the atomic and electronic structure of solids for the purpose of understanding their static and dynamic properties. Prerequisites: TFFY17 Modern physics, TFFY25 Thermodynamics and statistical mecahnics and TFFY54 Quantum Mechanics II are recommended. Course content: The atomic structure of ordered solids. Theoretical and experimental background for structure determinations using diffraction. Lattice vibrations. Dynamic properties, such as heat capacity and conduction, deduced from the lattice vibrations. The electronic structure of ordered solids, including some theoretical models for describing the electron band structure of different types of solids; the free electron model, the nearly free electron model and the tight binding model. Electron states in semiconductors, doping. Fermi surfaces in metals. Defects. Course literature: Kitell, C.: "Introduction to Solid State Physics", 6th ed., John Wiley, 1986.
