Course Syllabus

Course Overview

In the final part of the physics course a quantum physics, which is a modern theory of natural phenomena, is introduced to a student. Using principles of quantum theory as basis, a variety of optical phenomena, internal structure and properties of matter (including modern semiconductor-based devices), nuclear transmutations, multitude of elementary particles explored by high-energy physics, are considered.

To imrove analytical skills and develop a creative approach the problem solving sessions will be arranged, complementary to laboratory sessions in optics and condenced matter lab.

Course goals

By the end of the 3^st semester every student will/should be familiar with basic principles of modern physics. Fundamental of optical technologies, solid state physics&technology, nuclear phenomena are covered by this part of the physics course.

Recommended Textbooks:

“Fundamentals of Physics” by D.Halliday, R.Resnick and J.Walker.

“Light and Matter” by Benjamin Crowell, www.lightandmatter.com

“Calculus Based Physics” by Jeffrey W.Schnick, creativecommons.org
