Introduction to the physical foundations of electronics, including electrostatic and magnetostatic fields and basic properties of classical dielectrics and magnetic materials; electron behavior as described by quantum theory, classical and quantum pictures of current flow in electrical conductors, and semiconductor materials (composition, structure, electronic and optical properties). Practical examples will draw from electromagnetics and contemporary materials and device applications.
Open to ENGIN, pre-ENGIN, EE and CS ENG majors. PHYSICS152,MATH233&ECE201oretc
