Description:
The module Selected applications of functional materials shall enable students understanding, interpreting and analysing phenomena related to effects utilised in modern sensors. Owing to that students will be capable of reconstructing, explaining, designing and applying materials for diverse sensors. They will have a possibility to adapt the existing and to design new technologies.
Prerequisites:
It is required to achieve effects of education of the modules: physics, chemistry, crystallography, materials testing methods and thermodynamics.
