Lecture Notes on Solid State Physics - Kevin Zhou
knzhou.github.ioSolid State Physics Kevin Zhou kzhou7@gmail.com These notes comprise an undergraduate-level introduction to solid state physics. Results from undergraduate quantum mechanics are used freely, but the language of second quantization is not. The primary sources were: • Kittel, Introduction to Solid State Physics.

A Short Course on Topological Insulators - arXiv
arxiv.orgcrucial ingredient. The name topological insulator was coined for such systems, and their study became a blossoming branch of solid state physics. Following the theoretical prediction (Bernevig, Hughes and Zhang, 2006 [5]), electronic transport measurements confirmed that a thin layer of HgTe is a topological insulator (Konig¨ et al, 2007 [21]).
