| * The offering term is subject to change without prior notice | ||||||||
Course Aims | ||||||||
This course is aimed at providing both the generalized understanding and in-depth knowledge on certain selected subjects on materials chemistry. It will also provide substantial chemistry foundation for students from a non-chemistry background. It started with a lecture on the fundamental of materials chemistry, followed by a series of lectures on chemistry principles including quantum chemistry, molecular structures, chemical bonding, molecular orbital theory and coordination complex, intermolecular forces, band theory of solid, basic organic chemistry, and fundamental electrochemistry and associated applications. It will also include one lecture on chemistry of the emerging two-dimensional materials. Upon successful completion of the course, students are expected to gain sufficient knowledge on chemistry of materials, including the fundamental principles behind essential chemical reactions and materials properties, as well as potential applications targeting at solving various material issues on future technologies. | ||||||||
