Know the theory of semiconductor nanostructures, features of calculating the density of states and the concentration of charge carriers in the low-dimensional case, the main mechanisms of charge transfer in quantum wells, wires, dots and composite materials with a semiconductor component. Be able to apply knowledge of the basics of operation and use of low-dimensional semiconductors.

Full-time form

Know the basic issues of physics of low-dimensional semiconductors, in particular: mathematical formulation and physical content of the main manifestations of the quantum-dimensional effect in low-dimensional semiconductors; basic modern ideas of physics of semiconductor heterostructures, their application in devices and devices; Be able to apply in practice the methods of quantum mechanics and solid state physics to describe the properties of low-dimensional semiconductors; logically and consistently formulate the basic laws of determining energy states in low-dimensional semiconductors; work independently with the scientific literature in the field of physics of semiconductor nanosystems.

The course "Nanophysics of semiconductors" examines both classical and modern advances in the description of physical laws and practical use of semiconductor nanoscale systems. The aim of the discipline is to master the basic principles of the theory of semiconductor nanosystems, in particular, statistics of charge carriers in such systems, the main mechanisms of charge transfer in them.

Lectures - 30 hours, Self-study -60 hours, consultations.

Interviews during the lecture, checking essays and other forms of independent work. Modular tests. Test. Two modular tests: (24-36) points. Self-study: (12-24) points. A student is not allowed to take the exam if he / she scored less than 36 points during the semester. The grade for the exam cannot be less than 24 points to get an overall positive grade for the course.
