Best solid state physics video course

AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around finding the best online video course for solid state physics. Participants suggest that while introductory courses exist, textbooks like Charles Kittel's are more comprehensive and beneficial for deeper understanding. MIT offers valuable materials for advanced studies, and YouTube features numerous lectures, particularly from Indian educators. There is also mention of additional resources, including lecture notes and a unique website created by a doctoral student. Overall, a combination of textbooks and diverse online resources is recommended for solid state physics learning.

Hi,

What is the best solid state physics video course available online.

So far the best one i have found is this one .. but it is just introduction to Solid State Physics

You'd really be better off looking for a textbook..
 
I've recently found these lectures. Although I haven't had the time to watch them, they appear to reflect the same material presented in a typical solid state physics course.

I can dig up some lecture notes and other resources if you're interested. Just PM me.
 
Does anybody have a solutions manual for Solid State Physics by Ashcroft and Merlin?
 
I Would suggest getting a textbook, I prefer Charles Kittel. It is an introduction but has more advanced material as well. If you are looking for more advanced material on lecture videos I don't know if you will find any. There are however many websites out there with materials on them for more advanced solid state physics. Here is an MIT course http://web.mit.edu/afs/athena/course/6/6.732/www/texts.html it contains materials from several texts that might be of use to you
 
It isn't video, but if you haven't seen it you must:

Supposedly put together by doctoral student preparing for orals who happened to be a fan.

LOL it says Booble on the side. I've got to start using Booble more often.
