Course Objectives	This course intends to equip students with some basic understanding about the current research in condensed matter physics. From the fundamental to more sophisticated phenomena, it covers a wide scope with emphasis on more conceptual building than the rigorous formulation. Students are required to have some quantum mechanics and statistical physics background, in order to digest the comprehensive content of this subject and appreciate its profound implication in today's technological applications.
