Course description and aims
The purpose of the course is to present innovative concepts and technologies for the exploration, characterization and use of materials and devices. Status quo of nanotechnologies is overviewed. At the end of this course, students will be able to learn the role of innovative materials in the society as well as to understand the basic concepts on innovative materials with backgrounds such as physics, chemistry, and mathematics.
Student learning outcomes
By focusing on innovative concepts and technologies for the exploration, characterization and use of energy and environmental materials, recent topics and progress are overviewed on “Innovative concepts and technologies in materials science” and “Recent progresses in nanotechnologies: materials, processing and applications”. In addition, the instructor would like the students to learn the latest topics about innovative materials and to apply the knowledge to design and develop practical materials.
