I believe they are special points (in reciprocal or "k" space) in the first Brillouin zone which have symmetry dependent upon the type of lattice (FCC, BCC, etc). One notable k point is Gamma which is the center of the first Brillouin zone.
Solid state physics is a branch of physics that focuses on the study of properties of solid materials, such as crystals and semiconductors. Condensed matter physics is a broader field that includes the study of both solids and liquids, investigating the behavior of matter in condensed phases. While solid state physics is more specific to solids, condensed matter physics encompasses a wider range of topics including superconductivity, magnetism, and phase transitions in both solids and liquids.
The branch of physics that studies the movement of electrons is called solid-state physics or condensed matter physics. This field focuses on understanding the behavior of electrons in solid materials, such as semiconductors and superconductors.
In physics, deposition refers to the process by which a gas transforms directly into a solid without passing through the liquid state. This occurs when the temperature of the gas decreases to the point where the particles lose enough kinetic energy to form a solid. Deposition is the reverse process of sublimation, where a solid transforms directly into a gas.
Solid state physics is a study of solid (rigid matter). Solid state physics applies everywhere around us. It involves how the macro-scale properties of solid materials result from their micro-scale properties. Most of the solids are arranged in such a way that their atoms are in an orderly repetitive arrays so the solids we see around are the examples of solid state physics e.g. sugar molecules, salt (Nacl), glass etc. So, it forms the theoretical basis of material science. Its applications are in the technology of transistors and semiconductors. Quantum mechanics, metallurgy, electromagnetism, crystallography, etc are all part and parcel of solid state physics.
Hybrid operation in solid state physics refers to the use of both semiconductor and dielectric materials in a device to take advantage of their respective properties. This approach can lead to improved device performance by combining the electrical properties of semiconductors with the insulating properties of dielectrics. Hybrid devices are often designed to have enhanced functionality, performance, or efficiency compared to devices made of only one type of material.
Solid State Physics Laboratory was created in 1962.
