Semiconductors support the basis of modern electronics, and research into the physical properties of quantum materials utilizing
the “quantum nature of electrons” is being conducted around the world in order to apply them to devices with higher performance
and functionality. In this class, students will learn various properties of quantum materials based on concepts such as the
behavior of electrons in crystals and energy band structures. Students will also learn about next-generation devices using
quantum materials.
The purpose of this class is to understand the origin of the various properties of quantum materials, which are expected to
be applied to electronics in the future, from the viewpoint of the “quantum nature of electrons” and to acquire knowledge
of these properties.
- Students are able to explain the physical phenomena in strongly-correlated oxides.
- Students are able to explain the physical phenomena in monolayer chalcogenides.
- Students are able to explain the physical phenomena in thin films, interfaces, and devices.
- Students are able to explain the physical phenomena in superstructures of two-dimensional materials.
