- Link the concepts of solid state physics and major applications.
- Understand electronic properties in semiconductors and the principles of operation of basic semiconductor devices
- The main concepts of physics at the nanoscale
Put into perspective the basics concept of solid state physics for devices including semiconductors and nanomaterials (diode, photovoltaIc cells, sensors, electronic transport, ...)
Solid state and material physics have many applications (electronic devices, transformation and storage of energy, sensors, ...) et is a very active research domain. The surfaces (interfaces) and the (nano)structuration play a main role in these applications. In the course, we will detail the effect of the surfaces and of the structuration on physical properties, with a focuss on applications. A large part will be devotes to semiconductors and their applications.
The exact table of content is subject the change every year.
It typically includes the following parts:
1 Surface cristallography, form of nanoparticules and scale effectc
2.Electronic structure of nanostructures and quantum dots
3. Local surface plasmon
4.Electronic transport at the nanoscale
5. 2D materials
6. Semiconductors at équilibrium
7. Electronic transport in semiconductors
9. Generation and recombination in semiconductors
10. The pn junction
11. Metal-semiconductor contacts and heterojunctions.
