Structure of Materials    3 s.h

Catalog description

A study of the structure/property relationship of materials at the electronic, atomic, and molecular level. Using quantum chemistry, symmetry, chemical bonding and electrochemistry, this course will introduce the student to the classification and properties of amorphous, crystalline, and semi-crystalline structures including metals, semiconductors, ceramics, polymers, and hybrid materials. The properties to be studied include mechanical, thermal, electrical, and magnetic properties.
