Line Number 914731
Course Name CHEM473A - Special Topics In Chemistry (A)
Course Description
This course is intended to give the students an overview of a variety of functional materials employed in optical, dielectric, magnetic and other sensors and actuators devices. The course emphasizes the interplay between the intrinsic molecular structural properties and their utilization in technical applications in modern devices. This course focuses on the physical and chemical concepts, principles and theories behind the application of substances and composites in different technology and biotechnology. It also introduces the student to how micro-structural properties translate into optical, electrical?. etc. properties. Functional materials cover all classes of organic, inorganic and hybrid materials.
