EE 362 Electronic, Magnetic, & Optical Properties of Materials

Credits: 3

This course studies the behavior of materials of interest to electrical engineers and covers fundamental issues such as energy band theory, density of states, Fermi-Dirac statistics, equilibrium statistics in semiconductors, and Fermi energy. This foundation is then used to study topics such as conduction and semiconductor devices.Other topics include Peltier devices, optoelectronics, and piezoelectric devices.

Prerequisites: MATH 225, MATH 321 with a grade of “C” or higher, and (PHYS 213 or PHYS 209)
