#THOMAS FERMI SCREENING METALS UPDATE#
Some of my mathematica generated 3D images result in very large pdfs.Ĭhangelog for this update (relative to the first, and second, and third, and the last pre-exam Changelogs).įigure out a general solution for two interacting harmonic oscillators, then use the result to calculate the matrix required for a 2D two atom diamond lattice with horizontal, vertical and diagonal nearest neighbour coupling.ĭecemLecture 24: Superconductivity (cont.)ĭecemProblem Set 10: Drude conductivity and doped semiconductors. NOTE: This v.5 update of these notes is still really big (~18M). My thanks go to Professor Julian for teaching this course. Links to Mathematica workbooks associated with this course.Some worked problems attempted as course prep, for fun, or for test preparation, or post test reflection.Personal notes exploring details that were not clear to me from the lectures, or from the texts associated with the lecture material.

These mirror what was covered in class, possibly augmented with additional details. Topics include: bonding in solids, crystal structures, lattice vibrations, free electron model of metals, band structure, thermal properties, magnetism and superconductivity (time permitting)” The student is assumed to be familiar with elementary quantum mechanics.

Official course description: “Introduction to the concepts used in the modern treatment of solids. Here is what will likely be the final update of my class notes from Winter 2013, University of Toronto Condensed Matter Physics course (PHY487H1F), taught by Prof.
