Course description
Introduction to advanced materials & nanotechnology. This course explores the forces that control self-assembly in 2D and 3D nanomaterials and how these lead to the unique properties of nanomaterials, covering both inorganic and organic materials including surfactants, colloids, polymers and biologically-inspired systems. The assembly, state-of-art characterisation, chemistry, structure-property relationships & novel applications are covered in this course.
