Anotation:
The subject is aimed on solid state physics including some parts of statistical physics. The subject informs about basic properties of materials used in electronics, esp. about semiconductors.
Course outlines:
1. | | Statistical physics basics, Liouville theorem. Gibbs distribution. |
2. | | Thermodynamic potentials: enthalpy, free energy, chemical potential, entropy and probability. |
3. | | Statistical distributions: Maxwell-Boltzmann, Fermi-Dirac and Bose-Einstein distribution. |
4. | | Solid and condensed mater, their description; crystals. Crystal classification, reciprocal lattice. |
5. | | Dynamical properties of crystal lattice; heat capacity. |
6. | | Lattice defects; point defects, dislocations; surface properties, nanocrystals. |
7. | | Crystal bindings, their character and classification; van der Waals crystals. Ionic and covalent crystals. |
8. | | Band structure of solids. Semiconductors, effective mass, density of states. |
9. | | Semiconductor in thermodynamic equilibrium. Electrons and holes. Fermi level calculation. |
10. | | Transport effects in semiconductors, scattering mechanisms. |
11. | | Electrons and holes in non-equilibrium, generation and recombination of charge carriers. |
12. | | Electric conductivity of dielectrics, dielectric strength, inner and thermal breakdown. Dielectrics polarization in alternating field, complex permittivity and dissipation factor, ferroelectrics, pyroelectrics, piezoelectrics. |
13. | | Metals, Fermi gas of free electrons, Fermi surfaces. Magnetic effects in solids and their origin, dia-, para-, fero-, feri-, antifero- magnetic solids. |
14. | | Optical properties of solids, luminescence. |
