content:

Discussing problems of solid state physics the general aspects of quantum mechanics will be introduced. The
quantummechanical way of thinking will be teached instead of focussing on the mathematical calculations of several physical problems. The mathematical concept of quantummechanics will be introduced by
applying it on several examples of solid state physics. Quantummechanic terms like linear hermetic operators, Schrödingers equation, Heisenbergs uncertainty principle, fermions, bosons, tunneling effect
and electrons in solid materials shall be combined with personal practical experiences.
