Experimental Nanomaterials and Nanoscience

Catalog description

This course will provide a series of laboratory experiments similar to the state-of-the-art R&D in nanotechnology and nanoscience. The experiments include 1) fabrication of nanomaterials such as metal nanoparticles and graphene nanoplatelets; 2) characterization of physical and chemical properties by using techniques such as Raman spectroscopy, atomic force microscopy, terahertz spectroscopy, electrochemical analyses etc.; and 3) computational modeling of nanoscale physical phenomena.
