Outline of lecture

2nd Semester (October) (2-0-0)

Assoc. Prof. Martin VACHA, Assoc. Prof. Yuhei Hayamizu

Organic materials are unique due to their molecular structures and organizations compared with inorganic materials. Physics of the soft materials will be presented particularly from the viewpoints of physics in organic molecules and biomaterials. Assoc. Prof. Vacha will talk about 窶弃hotophysics and Spectroscopy of Organic Molecules窶. Assoc. Prof. Hayamizu will talk about 窶彜elf-assembly of Biomaterials and their Uses for Sensing窶.
