Condensed matter physics is a branch of physics that focuses on understanding the properties of solid and liquid materials at the atomic and subatomic levels. This field explores the behavior of particles in condensed phases, such as crystals, liquids, and glasses, as well as phenomena like superconductivity, magnetism, and phase transitions. Researchers in condensed matter physics study a wide range of materials and systems, including semiconductors, metals, polymers, and complex materials like graphene and topological insulators. The field has applications in technology, materials science, and quantum computing, among other areas.
