物理学哲学博士-凝聚态物理

物理系提供研究生课程，导致理学硕士和哲学博士学位。该系在以下领域进行实验和理论物理学的研究：大气物理学，地球物理学，量子光学，凝聚态物理学，亚原子物理学和天体物理学以及生物物理学。该系与加拿大理论天体物理学研究所（CITA）有着密切的联系。该协会使我们的学生能够与被任命为CITA或正在访问CITA的顶尖理论家合作并进行咨询。凝聚态物理是物理学的一个分支，研究组成普通和奇异材料的大量原子的性质。凝聚态物理因为可以处理普通化学和热能尺度上的物质特性，因此是直接实践应用最多的物理子领域，与化学，材料科学和电气工
The Department of Physics offers graduate programs leading to the Master of Science and Doctor of Philosophy degrees. The department carries out research in experimental and theoretical physics in the following fields: atmospheric physics, geophysics, quantum optics, condensed matter physics, subatomic physics and astrophysics, and biophysics. The department has close ties with the Canadian Institute for Theoretical Astrophysics (CITA). This association enables students to work and consult with leading theorists who are appointed to, or who are visiting, CITA. Students are admitted under the General Regulations of the School of Graduate Studies. The department provides financial support for one year of the MSc and four years of the PhD program (five years for direct-entry PhD).<br>The Quantum Condensed Matter Physics cluster at U of T is particularly strong in the study of quantum materials, which reveals unexpected and exotic behaviour when subjected to extreme conditions such as low temperature and/or high pressure. Physical properties of these materials are studied using various theoretical methods and experimental techniques, such as STM, quantum oscillations, neutron/x-ray scattering. The group also actively participate in international collaboration on quantum materials through the Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIfAR) network. Additional research activities in condensed matter physics are carried out by the quantum optics cluster and the Experimental Nonlinear Physics Group.
