ECTS credit allocation (and other scores):	(not available) Basic information on ECTS credits allocation principles: the annual hourly workload of the student’s work required to achieve the expected learning outcomes for a given stage is 1500-1800h, corresponding to 60 ECTS; the student’s weekly hourly workload is 45 h; 1 ECTS point corresponds to 25-30 hours of student work needed to achieve the assumed learning outcomes; weekly student workload necessary to achieve the assumed learning outcomes allows to obtain 1.5 ECTS; work required to pass the course, which has been assigned 3 ECTS, constitutes 10% of the semester student load. view allocation of credits
Language:	Polish
Type of course:	obligatory courses
Prerequisites (description):	Requirements for participation in the course "Elements of condensed matter physics" introduction to physics, experimental laboratory fundamentals of mathematical analysis fundamentals of quantum mechanics Basic concepts: atomic mass, molecular mass, definition of mole, molar mass, density, molar volume ideal gas and its properties definition of specific heat and molar heat linear thermal expansion coefficient Hooke law harmonic oscillator, vibrations of mass on a spring and two masses on a spring mechanical waves electromagnetic waves in vacuum, black body radiation electrical resistance, specific resistivity
Short description:	The course "Elements of condensed matter physics" consists of lectures, discussion sessions and laboratories. Students learn on structure, methods of description and experimental methods of investigation of the condensed matter
Full description:	Problems related to structurally disordered systems and crystals. Methods of experimental investigations - X-ray diffraction, electronic transport, spectroscopic methods. Basic theoretical concepts of solid state physics- kinematic theory of diffraction, phonons, Fermi gas, electronic structure. Students solve problems illustrating content of lectures. Students carried out or take part in experiments related to X-ray diffraction, heat of phase transition, specific heat, electric conductivity, critical phenomena.
