====== Worksheets, handouts, articles ====== ===== Handouts ===== * {{handout1_math.pdf|Basic mathematical knowledge}} reguired in this course. Read for 4/1 class. * {{handout2_qm.pdf|Summary of quantum mechanics}} used in this course. This is a summary, with just a few examples. Read for 4/1 class. * {{:h_atom_wave_functions.pdf|H atom wave functions}} with complex spherical harmonics. /* This text between the slash * and * slash is hidden*/ ===== Worksheets ===== *{{:l6_worksheet.pdf|MO coefficients worksheet}} (week 3) *{{:triangular_lattice.pdf|Dispersion triangular lattice}} (week 3) *{{:lattice_activities.pdf|Crystal lattice worksheet}} (week 5) *{{:m_quiz.pptx|m* worksheet}} (week 5) *{{:lcao-nt.pdf|Schönberger's graphene & CNT LCAO excercise}} (week 9) ===== Articles ===== * {{:cohen_quantum_theory_of_solids_mrs2015.pdf|Article by Marvin Cohen}} describing the development of modern methods to compute the energy and properties of solids. Very readable and accessible with few equations. (MRS Bulletin 40 (2015) p.522) For week 5 or so. /* * Roald Hoffmann, How chemistry and physics meet in the solid state, Angew. Chem. Int. Ed.
