There are only few days …

There are only few days left before the midterm examination on the 28/3 and I would like to clarify - I did it already during lectures - what part of the course syllabus is included in the midtem examination. In terms of Kittel book, the following parts are included: Chapters 1-5, 20 in full, Chapter 6 until p.147, and Appendix D. In other words we include structural and thermal phenomena/properties of periodic solids, specifically: x-ray diffraction and reciprocal space, crystal binding, point defect and diffusion, lattice vibrations and phonons, density of states in terms of Born-von-Karman boundury conditions, phonon-related heat capacitance and thermal conductivity, concept of free electron Fermi gas (FEFG) in ground state, FEFG at T>0, heat capacity of FEFG.

Good luck with the examination!
