About the Course

This course can also be taken for academic credit as ECEA 5630, part of CU Boulder’s Master of Science in Electrical Engineering degree. This course introduces basic concepts of quantum theory of solids and presents the theory describing the carrier behaviors in semiconductors. The course balances fundamental physics with application to semiconductors and other electronic devices. At the end of this course learners will be able to: 1. Understand the energy band structures and their significance in electric properties of solids 2. Analyze the carrier statistics in semiconductors 3. Analyze the carrier dynamics and the resulting conduction properties of semiconductors...

The course was very effective. But needed to work out a lot on assignment problems. And some problems required extra knowledge then what is explained. Especially some equations for problems in week 1 and 4, are not there in the video and required to learn additionally from external sources to solve those problems. May be lack of my prior knowledge. Overall it was good.

Overall a nice course at a high level. The time needed to thoroughly go through the lectures and solve the problems far exceeded the indicated 14 hours in my case. Some exercises are not very well posed, making it hard to understand what is meant. But I did feel like I learned a lo.

This course provides full insight into the fundamentals of Semiconductors. The course contents are useful to brush up on more advanced topics and are well introduced and presented. Sometimes, the degree of difficulty of homework and assignments is above the lectures standards.

Course content was perfect. Would be nice to see some worked example problems during the lectures (or part of the lectures series videos). Would also be nice to see some of the equations worked out by hand as part of the video rather than showing them on slides.

It is a really good course about semiconductors physics. The hall effect topic was actually really helpful for my PhD studies. The downside is that is really difficult to contact with the tutor to ask questions (specially in the quiz).

Week 4 seems too difficult compared to the content taught in the course for week 4. Rest seemed fine. I wish that hints will be given to the tough questions, so that students who take the course later on won't feel difficult.
