Solid state physics

Summary

Lectures from Solid State Physics include description of microscopic structure of solids, phenomenological description of their material properties, and examples of solid-state material applications in modern technologies. It is based on description of crystal structure of solids and introduction to quantum description of electrons in periodic potential and lead to understanding of mechanical, thermal, electrical, optical, and magnetic properties of solids. Moreover, it demonstrate application of appropriate mathematical methods.
