MS 3022材料物理性質 (吳志明)
課程概述與目標：
The understanding of the behavior of electrons in solids is one of the keys to
understanding materials. The electron theory of solids is capable of explaining
the optical, magnetic, thermal, as well as the electrical properties of
materials. In other words, the electron theory provides important fundamentals
for a technology which is often considered to be the basis for modern
civilization. A few examples will illustrate this; optical properties of
materials are utilized in lasers, optical communication, windows, lenses, optical
coatings, solar collectors, and reflectors. Some materials are extremely good
electrical conductors, such as silver and copper; others are good insulators,
such as porcelain or quartz. Semiconductors are generally poor conductors at room
temperature unless some dopants or impurity were doped into the materials. Thus,
a considerable effort needs to be undertaken to comprehend its basic concepts. To
cover these aspect viewpoints, the course units will be included as below.
