Course description and aims
[Summary of the course] This course focuses on advanced inorganic materials, especially relating to photonics and catalysis. For students at the other undergraduate majors, this course provides opportunity to learn advanced science and technology in the fields of applied chemistry as well as fundamentals to inorganic chemistry being equivalent to 200-level courses.
[Aim of the course] The aim of the course is to understand the importance of the basic inorganic chemistry from a global viewpoint. The relation to fundamental chemistry will be discussed with showing examples including frontier inorganic chemistry of photochemistry, solid chemistry and surface chemistry. However, the main topic is a review on the basic inorganic chemistry. Relationships with other chemistry fields (organic chemistry, macromolecular chemistry, chemical engineering and energy conversion) will also be discussed.
Student learning outcomes
At the end of this course, students will be able to:
1) Understand the importance and back ground of fundamental chemistry in order to study inorganic photochemistry and catalyst chemistry.
2) Indicate examples and mechanism of interaction between light and transition elements, metal and metal complex.
3) Explain synthesis route of nano particles and porous materials and relation between them and catalysis.
Keywords
