Part 1 of the course (Spring semester) focuses on the chemistry of the building blocks and to learn how structures can be manipulated by chemistry, composition and phase behaviour. The goal is to learn what can be done, both in an idealized research environment and in the realm of industrial scale production.
Lernziel
The goal of the two courses combined is to present the students with a toolbox for materials engineers to design, study and make soft materials.
Inhalt
Where physics, chemistry and biology meet engineering.
Skript
Copies of the slides and a set of lecture notes will be provided.
Literatur
For the first and the second part combined there are a few books of recommended reading, but their is no textbook that we will rigorously follow.
