Elements to Condensed Matter Physics 390-FS2-1FFS
Problems related to structurally disordered systems and crystals. Methods of experimental investigations - X-ray diffraction, electronic transport, spectroscopic methods. Basic theoretical concepts of solid state physics- kinematic theory of diffraction, phonons, Fermi gas, electronic structure.
Students solve problems illustrating content of lectures. Students carried out or take part in experiments related to X-ray diffraction, heat of phase transition, specific heat, electric conductivity, critical phenomena.
