The goal of this course is to provide the students with the basics of solid state physics. Prerequisites of statistical physics and quantum theory are required and will be illustrated all along the lectures by means of practical examples.
The main models of electronic structure in periodic systems are exposed (Fermi free electron gas, nearly free electrons perturbation theory, tight-binding model) and illustrated by simple benchmark examples. Physics of lattice dynamics is also proposed together with the theory of Phonons in solids.
