Introduction to Nanoelectronics (MIT 6.701)
Builds current, voltage and resistance from atoms up: quantum basics, electronic structure of molecules, nanotubes and crystals, band formation, ballistic transport, a derivation of Ohm's law, and ballistic versus bulk MOSFETs. Includes the full open textbook, problem sets and exams.
Materials Project
Open database from Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory holding computed properties for over a hundred thousand inorganic crystals. Users can look up a compound's structure, symmetry, formation energy and phase diagram, and pull the same data through a Python API.
The Magnetic Memory Method Podcast
Long-running show hosted by memory trainer Anthony Metivier covering Memory Palace construction, mnemonic systems for vocabulary, names and numbers, and discussions of memory-improvement books. Listeners pick up practical techniques for memorising languages, exam material and everyday information.
Introduction to Solid State Physics
Standard undergraduate text on crystal structure, phonons, free electron and band theory, semiconductors, magnetism, and superconductivity. Working through it gives the vocabulary and models needed to read condensed matter and materials science literature.
nanohub.org/topics/electronic
NanoHUB.org is an online platform offering interactive simulations and educational resources for electronic materials and devices, featuring tutorials, lectures, and hands-on apps for exploring band structure, quantum transport, and semiconductor device modeling.
Electronic Properties of Materials
Introductory treatment of electrical, optical, magnetic, and thermal properties of materials, building from a simplified quantum mechanical foundation. Suited to engineering students who need the physics behind conductors, semiconductors, optoelectronics, and superconductors without a full solid state course.
