A course in the physics underlying solid state electronic and optical devices. The course presents an introduction to the electrical and optical properties of insulators, semiconductors and metals, including crystal structure, band theory, and electron transport. This is applied to obtain a physical understanding of the physics governing the behaviour of diodes, field effect and bipolar transistors, and other discrete optical and electronic devices. (0/12/0/30/0) PREREQUISITES: ENPH 231 (PHYS 231), ENPH 344 (PHYS 344) EXCLUSIONS: ENPH 336 (PHYS 336), ENPH 380 (PHYS 380), ENPH 480 (PHYS 480)
