Cursusdoelen
At the end of the course, you are able to:
  • Employ and discuss quantum mechanics, thermodynamics and condensed matter physics for solid-state materials
  • Define fundamental concepts related to nano-scale information storage and processing
  • Compose and discuss a complete scientific presentation about a current research topic in nano-electronics
  • Compose a written scientific review about a current research topic in nano-electronics
Inhoud
This course focuses on advanced and modern topics in condensed matter physics. The emphasis of the course is aimed at understanding solid-state materials, and how condensed matter phenomena can be utilized to store and process classical and quantum information. The course covers the concepts of binary logic and memory, the physical consequences of lower dimensionality in electronic structure, and introduces magnetism, Dirac materials, and the concept of topology in condensed matter.
Bijzonderheden
The course will be taught in English

Onderwerpen
The course covers the following topics:
• Lower dimensional electronic structure
• Information storage and processing in solid-state materials
• Atomic-scale magnetism
• Quantum information
• Dirac materials and topology
• Superconductivity
• Modern experimental techniques
• Scientific writing and presentation

Toetsinformatie
The assessment of the course is based on three components: (1) an in-class student presentation, (2) a written review report, and (3) attendance.
