Condensed matter physics investigates both large-scale and atomic-level characteristics of materials. Researchers in this field examine how substances form from numerous interacting atoms and electrons, and the resulting physical behaviors. The discipline is commonly divided into two areas: hard condensed matter physics focusing on quantum aspects, and soft condensed matter physics dealing with non-quantum phenomena. As one of physics' broadest and most adaptable specialties, it encompasses an extensive range of research topics and observable effects. Important discoveries in condensed matter physics have yielded practical applications like liquid crystal displays, advanced polymers, composite materials, and the Bose-Einstein Condensate phenomenon.
