This course aims to introduce into the fascinating world of nanomaterials which is a consequence of the reduction of one or more of a material's dimensions down to the nanoscale. Quantum size effects as expression for the localization of electrons in ultrathin films (2D), nanotubes and nanowires (1D), as well as in nanoclusters/nanoparticles (0D) will be addressed and their impact on various physical properties like electronic structure, electrical transport, optical and magnetic properties will be discussed. Beside acquiring a fundamental understanding regarding the implications of reduced length scales in materials, the student will also learn about the exploitation of resulting phenomena in current (e.g., GMR effect) and future (e.g., SETs) nanotechnologies. He/she will acquire knowledge on how to synthesize nanomaterials using topdown (lithography) as well as bottomup (selfassembly) strategies. Nanomaterials to be addressed include graphene, carbon nanotubes, and nanoparticles.
