Solid State Physics

Course DirectorySNHU PHY325 has 1 direct prerequisite, with 11 courses in its complete prerequisite tree.

Undergraduate · 3 credits

This course an introduction to condensed matter physics, or physics of the solid state. As the largest branch of physics it is responsible for many advances in technology from transistors and integrated circuits to superconductors and solid state lasers. Students learn about crystal structure and lattice vibrations in solids. Electronic structure and magnetism in solids will allow the student to see the differing properties of metals, insulators, semiconductors, and superconductors.
