Dear All, A book based on this course is now available. It includes these video lectures as well as solved questions and problems. It is titled "Physics of Materials, Essential Concepts of Solid-State Physics"

[@chacho0001]

+Prathap Haridoss Thanks professor Haridoss for the lectures. I already made the order for the book some minutes ago.

[@sr-mu6mf]

is there any soft copy or dvd's available in market containing all these videos offline?

[@Subhamd1996]

Sir I have reciprocal lattice in my syllabus , is it same as reciprocal space ?

[@physicswithrasmiranjan9930]

Hii Sir, which software is used for drawing of Brillouin zones and how to get it.. pls tell

[@mfoucault1984]

Prof. First of all, you are great. 2nd, why don't u include Bloch's theorem in between this lecture and the previous one?

[@ankitchakraborty1126]

i was trying to understand this for 4-5 days.and then this lecture came to me like farista.thanks a lot. wonderful lecture.

[@debajyotimajumder472]

me too!

A World Class Lecture in an Indian Class Institute !!

THANK YOU! I was lost in my class with reciprocal space, you did an amazing job!!! Wish my prof. taught like you

[@LetsSmile4Ever]

Thank you very much for a very nice and clear lecture! What makes it easy to understand is that you go though it on the blackboard - at my university the professors are lazy to write on blackboard and they just go through it on slides...

[@hikguru]

Really clear explanation. Although from my past learning I thought that b1 =2*pi*(a2*a3)/V, similarly for b2 and b3. In other words b1,b2 and b3 (consequently all k space points) are scaled by 2* pi from not using 2*pi in the expression. It doesn't change any conclusions, but if you use 2pi then you can say that exp(i.K.R)=1 since K.R=2*pi*integer. If you don't use pi then you have to say that exp(i.2pi*K*R)=1.

Gosh !!! I love this professor !!!! Now I understand the concept of reciprocal lattice !! Thank you so much !!!! :D :D :D

[@shashidharmuniswamy6954]

Thank you so much, Professor Prathap Haridoss !

[@imamhossain3013]

Dear Professor, is there any way to buy "Physics of Materials, Essential Concepts of Solid-State Physics" from USA?

[@MrPranoybiswas]

Sir today only I understand because of you..thank you sir

[@upoldezfranky8118]

so easily explained. love you sir

[@Samarthmalik110]

Thank u so much sir
For giving a superb lecture
God bless you

[@LostInLeiden]

Great lecturer, very clear, well explained, thanks a lot!!!

[@jayashrigaikwad6820]

excellent teacher & excellent explaination.

[@kiranpalsingh4203]

thanx a lot really appreciate it now i feel i hv little bit understanding of reciprocal lattice

[@nandhininandhu5929]

Sir why we have to choose arbitrary value .. can you please explain

[@bastabidas1543]

thank u so much sir... awesome lecture

[@Kpsc395]

thanks sir for this great lecture

[@avral4148]

Thanks a lot dear Prof.

[@its___arunima]

thanks a lot sir

[@luisiem]

amazing lecture thank you!

[@yuanyuan3056]

Clear and logical

[@FullTimeHypocrite]

selbst ein Inder mit krassem Akzent ist Tausend mal besser zu verstehen als mein Prof und der Erklärt immerhin in meiner Muttersprache - oder viel mehr erklärt nicht.
Armutszeugnis -.-

[@anushabenny3111]

Amazing cls

[@MrCananbalun]
