Course contents :
|
| This course is an introduction to the concepts of quantum physics, with an emphasis to the microscopic description of solid state matter.
Table of contents (titles) :
- Particle properties of waves
- Wave properties of particles
- Structure of the atom
- Schrodinger equation and applications
- Quantum model of the hydrogen atom
- Many-electron atoms
- Molecules and solid state
- Nucleus and applications of nuclear physics |
|
Learning outcomes of the course :
|
| At the end of this course, students are expected to have acquired the basic concepts of quantum physics which will allow them to approach the formalisms of the 3e year courses. |
|
Prerequisites and co-requisites/ Recommended optional programme components :
|
| Physics and mathematics learned during 1st bachelor. |
|
Planned learning activities and teaching methods :
|
| Lab works (reports to be returned).
Assignments (optional). |
|
Mode of delivery (face-to-face ; distance-learning) :
|
| The course contains about ten theoretical lectures.
During lab works, five sessions will allow the students to put into practice the concepts introduced in the lectures.
Assignments will be proposed on the platform eCampus and a discussion space will give the students the opportunity to interact with their peers, under the guidance of the pedagogical team. |
|
Recommended or required readings :
|
| An electronic copy of the slides will be available on eCampus.
A list of reference books will be given during the introductory course. |
|
Assessment methods and criteria :
|
| The evaluation consists in two parts :
- Reports of the lab works
- Written examination (theory and problems)
The weight of each part will be given during the introductory course. |
