Doctor's degrees in Physics, General: A general program that focuses on the scientific study of matter and energy, and the formulation and testing of the laws governing the behavior of the matter-energy continuum. Includes instruction in classical and modern physics, electricity and magnetism, thermodynamics, mechanics, wave properties, nuclear processes, relativity and quantum theory, quantitative methods, and laboratory methods.
Fields include areas of theoretical and experimental condensed-matter physics, optical and laser physics, and material physics. Specific programs include surface science, microlithography and quantum transport, optical properties of micro-cavities, spectroscopy at the nanoscale, near-field microscopy, atomic force microscopy and ferro-electronic materials, molecular beam epitaxy, mesoscopic physics, first principles electronic structure methods, and...
Over the last three centuries, the study of physics has revealed a world remarkably united around a small set of fundamental laws and basic forces of nature. These laws govern phenomena as varied as the behavior of subatomic particles and the motion of galaxies, making the study of physics a basic foundation for all the physical and life sciences.
At Yale, theorists and experimentalists explore and test these physical laws and search for new phenomena...
