The content of the course is the following:
- Functional interfaces: fundamental processes involved in various interfaces: charge and energy transfer, band bending, wetting, optical properties, heat transfer, adsorption and interface reactions (e.g. SEI), interface transfer
- Formation of hybrid materials and interfaces: self-assembly processes
- Hybrid materials: Specific combinations
- Hybrid materials with biological or bio-inspired materials
- Material-bio interfaces
- Complex electrodes in batteries
- Optoelectronics
The aim of this course unit is to both deepen and apply the knowledge of hybrid materials and specific phenomena occurring at interfaces of (hybrid) materials. The essential learning goals comprises of:
- The student understands the concept of the functional interface and the role this interface plays in physical phenomena such as charge transfer, surface tension or optical properties of materials
- The student can correlate interface-induced effects (in device assembly, (bio-)material-biological interactions) based on materials making the interface
- The student knows the three forms of transfer to an interface (charge) and can relate them to the concepts cited
- The student can translate a practical problem to the material component(s), make a proposal to solve the problem through modifications of the material and the results
- The student can work out a topic on hybrid materials or interface phenomena and present it orally to fellow students
