This is an interesting course to study, it might take a long time to understand concepts to build mathematical equations and solve them. Challenging course

Very informative course and nice approach to solve problems. Well tailored course suited to under graduate engineering students

Course content was perfect. Would be nice to see some worked example problems during the lectures (or part of the lectures series videos). Would also be nice to see some of the equations worked out by hand as part of the video rather than showing them on slides.

It is a really good course about semiconductors physics. The hall effect topic was actually really helpful for my PhD studies. The downside is that is really difficult to contact with the tutor to ask questions (specially in the quiz).

Week 4 seems too difficult compared to the content taught in the course for week 4. Rest seemed fine. I wish that hints will be given to the tough questions, so that students who take the course later on won't feel difficult.

ll-structured. But difficulties may appear if differential equations are not mastered, specially in Week 4.

The course structure is good. But the exercises are quite hard and no lectures are based on solving such problems.

It was a tough course. Especially the 4 th quiz , typing equations with symbols was very confusing.

you get an in-depth understanding of lattice structures how bandgaps exist in semiconductors.

not explained in detail as expected but however the assignment and quiz was harder and best

Nice but should be more detailed

The problems can be very challenging and once you get stuck in one of them, you feel terrible. Also, once you get hold of and master all of them you feel elated. Have experienced both ends of the spectrum, so yeah! If you are looking for an introduction to the course, or you're just trying to learn it lightly, this is not the course for you. Good luck !

Short and sweet course, explanations are clear but dry and homeworks test more the math skills than understanding of the concepts. Some questions (e.g. Haynes–Shockley experiment) would be better to be explained in a lecture than left for students to figure out by themselves.

A lot of the material covered in the peer reviewed assignments were not covered in the lectures. This required me to read through various semiconductor physics textbooks to get an idea on how to do these problems. The lectures seemed lackluster.

Felt haphazard compared to my previous courses in this. Also, issues with rounding errors in HW made them very difficult. Decent intro however.

There are issues regarding the answers in tests despite giving them the correct answers.
