Suggestions for courses depending on topics of interest : Condensed Matter Physics

Here are some suggestions of the courses you could take based on your interest. These are merely suggestions for those who do not know which courses to consider, or a starting point to building your course list, which should reflect your own personal interests. They should be treated as such. If you have any doubts or questions, please contact the coordinators.

The goal of this course is to introduce somewhat "advanced" topics in quantum matter, tackle truly quantum-entangled, strongly interacting, phases of matter and materials, and present how quantum matter is a particularly rich field, with many open theoretical problems.

Recent years have seen enormous experimental progress in preparing, controlling and probing quantum systems in various regimes far from thermal equilibrium. Examples include systems as ultra-cold atomic quantum gases under time-dependent perturbations, driven non-linear cavity QED systems or strongly correlated electrons in solid-state materials under ultra-fast optical excitations.

The main goal of this course is to cover the physics of light-matter interaction in the context of quantum devices, and materials at the nanoscale. This UE features both theoretical aspects in lectures and tutorials - possibly based on the analysis and discussion of recent research papers - and experimental projects (12h) on research grade experiments at the end of the semester. 

The main goal of this course is to present the different regimes of electronic transport in conductors and how quantum mechanical effects affect their resistance or conductance.
