Explores chemical bonding in solids, band structure, and surface scattering techniques for lattice parameter measurements and crystal orientation analysis.
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 the impact of strain on semiconductor band structures, epitaxy, critical thickness, and defect formation, emphasizing the role of Hooke's law and elasticity theory.
