Early in the 20th century, quantum mechanics and relativity theory were born, modern physics have developed very rapidly since then. A. Einstein contributed very much to both theories, but he had refused to accept quantum mechanics until the end. Solid state physics clarifies the structure of the atom and electron cloud, based on the quantum physics. This course includes the derivation of Schrodinger’s wave equation and its solution in the hydrogen atom. Crystal structure and X-ray diffraction theory will be discussed.
This course presents an introduction to quantum mechanics, crystal structure and X-ray diffraction. Schrodinger’s equation will be the starting point. The goal of this course is to understand, 1) the historical developments of quantum theory, 2)properties of particles and waves, 3) four quantum numbers to describe the electron cloud structure of the atom. Crystal is an aggregate of many atoms with the periodic motif. Crystal structure is identified by means of applying the X-ray diffraction theory.
