Explores diffusion mechanisms in solids, including simple, vacancy, and interstitial mechanisms, cubic and non-cubic structures, and the calculation of diffusion coefficients.
Explores electron behavior in an electron gas and the periodic arrangement of atoms in crystalline solids, along with density of states in various dimensions and energy bands.
Explores chemical bonding in solids, band structure, and surface scattering techniques for lattice parameter measurements and crystal orientation analysis.
Covers crystallography concepts, including veganicide cells, reciprocal lattices, and Brillouin zones, essential for understanding electron behavior in crystal structures.
