NANO 204 - Materials in Nanotechnology
PREREQUISITES: NANO 111 - Materials Safety and Equipment Overview for Nanotechnology , and NANO 202 - Characterization and Testing of Nanotechnology Structures and Materials .
PROGRAM: Nanotechnology
CREDIT HOURS MIN: 3
LECTURE HOURS MIN: 2
LAB HOURS MIN: 2
DATE OF LAST REVISION: Spring, 2019
This course is an in-depth, hands-on exposure to materials fabrication approaches used in nanofabrication. Students learn that these processes can be guided by chemical or physical means or by some combination of these. Hands-on exposure will include self-assembly, colloidal chemistry, solar cell fabrication, template guided electrodeposition.
MAJOR COURSE LEARNING OBJECTIVES: Upon successful completion of this course the student will be expected to:
- Have strong knowledge of nanoparticles, their synthesis and application.
- Know how nanomaterials can be used for biological applications.
- Demonstrate knowledge of quantum dots, nanowires and other building blocks of bottom-up nanofabrication.
- Be familiar with application of PDMS in nanotechnology.
COURSE CONTENT: Topical areas of study include -
- An Introduction to Colloidal and Self-Assembled Materials
- An Introduction to Nanoparticles and Nanostructures
- An Introduction to Nanoparticle Synthesis and Applications
- Quantum Dots
- Micro- and Nano-materials in Bio-applications
- PDMS: An Example of a Versatile Material for Micro- and Nanotechnology
