Teaching Information


In recent years I have taught PHYS 551-Introduction to Solid State Physics and most of these lecture notes are available for download in either PDF or PostScript formats.

In addition I have become involved in the Department of Physics' efforts to modernize the introductory physics laboratories. I am, in part, active in developing the PHYS 207/208 sequence as an on-line, interactive lab manual.
