Course description and aims
Students will learn about the electronic state, structure, dynamic properties of molecules and their interaction with light. Furthermore, based on statistical mechanics of molecular aggregates, students study the electronic state and electronic properties of molecular aggregates, and learn the concepts of metals, semiconductors, etc.
Student learning outcomes
By the end of this course students will understand the electronic states and electronic properties of condensed matter and the behavior of metals and semiconductorsconcept of energy band structure.
Keywords
Molecular partition function, Energy band structure, Optical property of molecular solids, Density of states, Fermi energy
Competencies that will be developed
| ✔ Specialist skills | Intercultural skills | Communication skills | Critical thinking skills | Practical and/or problem-solving skills |
Class flow
The lecture about the solid-state physics is given on every Monday, and that about the molecular energy levels is given on every Thursday.

Out-of-Class Study Time (Preparation and Review)
To enhance effective learning, students are encouraged to spend approximately 100 minutes preparing for class and another 100 minutes reviewing class content afterwards (including assignments) for each class.
They should do so by referring to textbooks and other course material.
Textbook(s)
Course materials are provided during class if necessary.
Reference books, course materials, etc.
None required.
Assessment criteria and methods
Students’ course scores are based on understanding of basic concepts of atoms and molecules, and condensed matter.
Activities in class 20%, Final examination (or Report) 80%
