-
1.00 - 3.00 Credits
Investigative research by undergraduate students under the guidance of a faculty mentor. The investigation and resulting report are primarily the responsibility of the student. Permission of instructor required to enroll.
-
1.00 - 5.00 Credits
Study of specialized topics in physics. *The blank will be filled with an appropriate short description on the student's transcript to indicate the topical area studied. Permission of instructor required to enroll.
-
3.00 Credits
(Prerequisites, PH 143 or PH 193.) Computer solutions of physics problems using spreadsheets, computer algebra systems and programming languages. A basic familiarity with computer applications and programming is assumed.
-
3.00 Credits
(Prerequisite, PH 143 or PH 193.) An introductory course in geometrical optics, physical optics and photonics. Properties of lenses and simple optical instruments, phenomena of interference, diffraction and polarization, electromagnetic waves and photons.
-
3.00 Credits
(Prerequisites, PH 193 and MA 262.) Fundamental ideas of temperature, work, internal energy, heat, reversibility, entropy, and other thermodynamic functions. Application of the laws of thermodynamics to physics, chemistry and engineering. An introduction to statistical mechanics.
-
3.00 Credits
(Prerequisites, PH 143 or PH 193 and MA 161 or MA 165.) Theories involved in advances in physics since 1900. Includes: atomic structure, relativity, wave mechanics, radioactivity and nuclear physics.
-
3.00 Credits
(Prerequisite, PH 193.) The development of the concept of the atom is presented followed by a study of electrons and electromagnetic radiation which then leads to the atomic models proposed by Rutherford and Bohr. Special relativity is discussed in preparation for the study of X rays and further topics in nuclear physics.
-
3.00 Credits
(Prerequisite, PH 143 or PH 193. Corequisite, PH 548.) The basic physics of the P-N junction and its implementation in diodes and transistors is covered. Design work with diodes, transistors, and analog integrated circuits is stressed, along with the use of analog integrated circuits in instruments, power supplies, and computer interfaces.
-
2.00 Credits
(Corequisite, PH 547.) Laboratory to accompany PH 547.
-
3.00 Credits
(Prerequisite, PH 193, PH 143. Corequisite, PH 551.) After a review of AC and DC circuits, this course covers digital integrated circuits and their use in instrumentation and computer circuits and systems. The TTL and CMOS logic gates are covered in detail. MOS devices such as microprocessors, RAM and ROM memories, FIFO buffers, etc., are introduced. Digital computer circuits, codes, and interfacing are stressed.
