This course is targeted at physics students in their fourth year. It aims at introducing how quantum mechanical behavior emerges in condensed matter systems at the nanometer scale, and how quantum mechanical laws govern their properties. The course will provide an overview of physical phenomena that are observed experimentally, introduce their underlying physical principles, and aims to build the analytical skills to describe these phenomena mathematically. This course thus will equip you with the relevant concepts of modern nanoscience and technology that will prepare you to follow or initiate research in field or to work in industry jobs related to applied nanoscience and technology.
