Long Title: NANOPHOTONICS, SPECTROSCOPY, AND MATERIALS FOR SUSTAINABILITY

Department: Materials Science & NanoEng

Grade Mode: Standard Letter

Course Type: Seminar

Credit Hours: 3

Description: This course will cover the contributions that nanophotonic concepts and advanced spectroscopy techniques can make to the development and characterization of novel materials for energy and sustainability. Students will cover nanophotonic concepts for novel materials and characterization techniques, ultrafast and nanoscale spectroscopy techniques, and applications in energy and sustainability. For each topic, background information will be provided about the relevant science and engineering aspects, as well as examining the state-of-the art in the topic, via student-presentations and literature reviews. Cross-list: CHEM 661, ELEC 661.
