The objective of the course is to develop in the student awareness of situations in engineering, which need ideas of quantum mechanics, to make the student understand the basic language, apparatus and methods of quantum mechanics and to enable the students to understand the aspects of quantum mechanics, which are necessary to begin to work in small structures such as those common in nanotechnology.
Wave Function and Physical Properties, Particle in One-dimension, Quantum Tunneling, Simple Quantum Systems and Introduction to Advanced Ideas including Basic ideas of perturbation theory, time independent and time dependent perturbations; Basic ideas of many particle systems, symmetric and antisymmetric wave functions, statistics of electrons and photons.
