Lecture 26: Landau Levels

A metal in a magnetic field has its Fermi sea sectioned into onion-like layers, shaped like cylinders. These are Landau levels, due to the h...

Lecture 25: Vortices

There are many more phases of matter than solid, liquid, and gas. Superconductivity is a different phase of matter, and superconductors in t...

Lecture 24: Condensation Energy

When superconductors go superconducting, the energy gain is called the condensation energy. Lecture Audio

Lecture 23: Superconductivity

The quantum stability of a superconductor ensures that electrons can carry current perfectly, without losing energy. There are 2 ingredients...

Lecture 22: Antiferromagnets

We finish off the low temperature corrections to the magnetization in a ferromagnet due to spin wave excitations, and also calculate the ene...

Lecture 18: Paramagnetism and Diamagnetism

Magnetic moments in a solid come from the electronic spin, and also its orbital angular momentum. We review how the orbital angular momentum...

Lecture 17: Magnetization of Paramagnets

Paramagnets have magnetic moments whose directions fluctuate wildly with temperature. But, if you apply an external magnetic field, you can...

Lecture 16: Paragmagnetism

There are many flavors of magnetism in solids. You're probably most familiar with ferromagnets (like your refrigerator magnets). In these ma...

Lecture 15: Continuity Equations

We derive the Einstein relations, which connect the conductivity with the diffusion coefficient. This is far more exciting than it sounds, b...

Lecture 14: Band Bending

We answer that question: can you use a p-n junction to run a light bulb? More about the p-n junction: thermal equilibrium, and recombination...

Lecture 13: p-n Junctions

We talk more about holes today. They don't really exist, you know! But when only a few electrons are missing from the valence band, it's so...

Lecture 12: Semiconductors

Today is all about semiconductors. We talk about how to dope them. Donor atoms "donate" electrons into the conduction band, giving n-type se...

Lecture 10: Tight Binding Approximation

We solve for the electronic states in a 1D crystal in the "tight binding" approximation. Rather than starting from the box of free electrons...

Lecture 09: Bloch's Theorem

Have you ever wondered how electrons can sneak through a metal and conduct electricity with all those atoms in the way? It's Bloch's theorem...
