PHYS0000 Class Notes (partial) on Intermediate Solid State Physics (with a focus on semiconductors)

  • These are some class notes on intermediate-level Solid State Physics, covering a few key topics (but incomplete). The level is slightly beyond an introductory solid state physics course, with an emphasize on how quantum physics and statistical physics can be applied to understand the physics of solids and especially semiconductors.
  • It is hoped that readers will find the notes user friendly and educational. Please restrict the use to educational and non-profit purposes only.
  • Written by
