SYLLABUS
                                   PH25CO3 – APPLIED PHYSICS (CSIE) – II
Magnetic Materials: Parameters, Ferromagnetic materials, Ferrites – Soft and Hard
magnetic materials – GMR sensors – magnetic disk memories – Principle of magnetic
recording – Magnetic data storage.
Activities: Determination of Hysteresis loop for ferromagnetic materials.
Logic Gates: Conversion of Binary to decimal – decimal to binary – binary coded
decimal code-logic gates (OR, AND NOT, NAND and NOR) – Exclusive OR gate
simplification based n basic Boolean theorems (sum of products, product of sums
expression) – simplification by Karnaugh Map method (don’t care conditions).
Activities: Virtual demonstration of Logic Gates.
Nano-Devices: Introduction – electron density in bulk material – size dependence of
Fermi energy-quantum confinement – quantum structures; quantum wells, wires and
dots – band gap of nanomaterials. Tunneling – Coulomb blockade – single electron
transistor – resonant-tunneling diode. Carbon nanotubes: Properties and applications.
Activities: Virtual demonstration of single electron transistor.
Quantum Computing: Quantum system for information processing – quantum states
– classical bits quantum bits or qubits – Bloch sphere – CNOT gate – Single and
multiple qubits – quantum gates (Pauli – X, Y and Z Gates, Hadamard Gate, Phase
gate – T gate. CNOT gate) – advantage of quantum computing over classical
computing.
