By attending the course, students learn the following skills. They are capable,
- to develop computational or phenomenological solutions to physical problems in the fields of optics, thermodynamics, quantum mechanics and solid state physics independently or in a group (k3);
- to transfer concepts and solution approaches to new and unknown problems and to select and apply suitable mathematical methods (k3/k4);
- to explain physical questions and concepts, as well as mathematical solution processes (k2);
- to calculate your own solutions in front of the group and discuss the possible solutions (k3/k4)

BDuring the course, students acquire knowledge in the following areas and concepts of optics, thermodynamics, quantum mechanics and solid state physics:
- Waves and wave phenomena (transverse and longitudinal waves, classical wave equation);
- Optics (electromagnetic waves in vacuum, light in matter (speed of light, absorption, scattering, beam optics, interference and diffraction));
- Elements of quantum mechanics (heat radiation, Planck's constant, photon as a particle, wave - particle - dualism, uncertainty principle, stimulated emission and lasers, basic concepts of quantum mechanics, basic concepts of quantum mechanics, hydrogen atom and hydrogen molecule ion);
- Introduction to solid state physics (structure of solid bodies, Bloch theorem and energy bands of electrons, metals, semiconductors)
