== <span style="color: #FFFFFF;">Remembering</span> == * '''Condensed Matter''' β Phases of matter where particles are close together (solids and liquids). * '''Crystal Lattice''' β A highly ordered arrangement of atoms in a solid. * '''Semiconductor''' β A material with electrical conductivity between that of a conductor and an insulator (e.g., Silicon). * '''Superconductivity''' β A phenomenon where a material conducts electricity with zero resistance below a critical temperature. * '''Superfluidity''' β A state of matter in which matter behaves like a fluid with zero viscosity. * '''Band Theory''' β A model explaining the behavior of electrons in solids by identifying allowed and forbidden energy bands. * '''Fermi Level''' β The highest energy level occupied by electrons at absolute zero. * '''Phonon''' β A collective excitation in a periodic, elastic arrangement of atoms (a quantum of sound/vibration). * '''Allotrope''' β Different structural forms of the same element (e.g., Diamond and Graphite for Carbon). * '''Doping''' β Intentionally adding impurities to a semiconductor to change its electrical properties. * '''Bose-Einstein Condensate (BEC)''' β A state of matter formed by bosons cooled to near absolute zero, where they occupy the same lowest quantum state. * '''Topological Insulator''' β A material that behaves as an insulator in its interior but whose surface contains conducting states. * '''Magnetism''' β Collective behavior of electron spins leading to ferromagnetic, antiferromagnetic, or ferrimagnetic order. * '''Amorphous Solid''' β A solid that lacks a long-range periodic order of its atoms (e.g., Glass). </div> <div style="background-color: #006400; color: #FFFFFF; padding: 20px; border-radius: 8px; margin-bottom: 15px;">
