Program
The Main object of the course is to provide the students with the basics
of synthesis and processing of nanomaterials and nanostructures and
the physical properties related to the nanometer scale.
Subjects: physical chemistry of solid surface: surface energy,
electrostatic and steric stabilization. Chemical synthesis of nanoparticles
(metals, semiconductors, oxides), physical properties, applications.
Chemical synthesis of nanorods, nanowires and nanotubes, physical properties
and applications. Thin films depositions. Nanostructures fabricated
by physical techniques: lithography and microfabbrication. Nanocomposites:
synthesis and properties. Part of the lectures will be held in the lab
where the students will synthesize and characterize different kind of
nanomaterials. The following labs will be visited: Nanofab in Marghera
e the Electra synchrotron in Trieste
Lectures slides (see the italian version)
Exams
The exam can be give in English or Italian . Each students
has to write a report on the lab experiences and has to give a PowerPoint
presentation on a research paper provided by the professor.
