This subject supposes knowledge of quantum mechanics, thermodynamics and
statistical physics and creates theoretical shell of following lectures: Solid
State Physics, Metallic and Non-metallic materials. Theoretical models (used
in Solid State Physics) will be showed to understand of material properties
that are important for physical engineering (particularly metals and
semiconductors).
