Description

This course will concentrate on specific issues relating to the production of nanostructures, nanostructured materials and nanoscale devices. The production of nanostructures will deal with methods for synthesizing and assembling nanostructures, the concept of self-assembly and methods of characterizing their composition and structure. The second and third themes will use contemporary examples to illustrate the unique mechanical and electronic properties of nanoscale materials and devices and their application to, for example, quantum computing.

Note: Available only to students enrolled in program 3617
