Description:
The module Nanocomposites shall enable that students are knowledgeable about the conceptual basics, classification, structure, defects and properties of nanocomposites and about methods of their obtaining, testing and about applications corresponding with modern technical requirements. Students will be capable of performing a comparative analysis of nanocomposites testing methods, in particular methods based on atomic forces microscopy and scanning tunnelling microscopy. Owing to that students will be capable of selecting the material, the method of its obtaining depending on operational parameters of specific elements of equipment and also of obtaining a better understanding of correlations between nanocomposites obtaining methods, their structure and properties as well as mechanisms forming their properties. This will allow honing the skill to form nanocomposites structure and properties necessary for technical and medical applications.
Prerequisites:
It is required to achieve effects of education of the modules: physics, chemistry, crystallography, materials testing methods, nanomaterials and nanotechnologies .
