This course provides the fundamental knowledge on the chemistry of inorgamic mateirials.
In the first half, Quantum chemstry calculation(commercial software) is used to understand the chemical bonding from the point of view of electric structure of materials. Through the calculation on variosu materials, the students have knowledge of quantum chemical approach to the chemical bonds and know how to use this kind of method.
In the latter half, physics, chemistry, structure and properties of variosu kinds of inorganic materials are lectured. Those are intended to be the fundamental for science and engineering of ceramics.
This lecture aims to learn the following knowledge on the quantum and inorganic chemistry for understanding the inorganic materials and their properties.
Learn about the principles of quantum calculation and practical procedures.
Learn about the meaning of the electric structure from the practical calculations on various fundamental subjects and their analyses.
Understand the potential and usefulness of the quantum calculation.
Learn about the electric structural features of the elements appearing in periodic table.
Learn about the knowledge on the features and properties of the inorganic compounds containing various kinds of elements.
Learn about the origins of the varieties of structure and elements in inorganic compounds.
Quantum chemistry calculation, chemical bond, ab-initio(Hatree-Fock) method, molecular orbital
✔ Specialist skills | Intercultural skills | Communication skills | Critical thinking skills | ✔ Practical and/or problem-solving skills |
The course is devided into 2 parts.
In the first half, basic knowledge on the chemical bonds is provided. The students are requested to use quatum chemistry calculation software to calculate structutre of materials within lecture time. Some excercises are given in lecture, and the stiudents carry out the calculation based on Hatree-Fock level, and submit them to the lecturor. Explanation on Hatree-Fock method with other related theories are also provided.
In the latter half, the chemical composition and crystal structures of inorganic materils which affect to their physical properties would be studied in addition to the summarization of various knowledges on orbits and chemical studied in the former half of course.
