About the course
Condensed Matter Physics (CMP) explores how interactions between a large number of constituents - atoms, molecules, and electrons - give rise to the macroscopic behavior of matter. These constituents come together to form crystals, amorphous solids, polymers, macromolecules, and even biological materials such as DNA. Hence, CMP often deals with topics that come from seemingly disparate fields of Solid State Physics, Materials Science, Chemistry and Biology. Our research in CMP is as diverse as the field itself, which uses a combination of experimental, theoretical and computational tools to explore the connection between the structures at the atomistic level to the macroscopic properties of matter.
