In-depth materials science and materials engineering content of high-performance ceramic materials derived from nanoparticle technology is taught, particularly their process-based production, characterization, and current applications.
The following teaching content is a key focus:
- Literature, introduction to nanoparticle technology, overview of nanocrystalline ceramics, properties, and applications
- Synthesis of ceramic nanoparticles and ceramic fibers, nanoparticle characterization
- Nanoparticle processing technology, preparation of ceramic nanoparticles, colloidal gels, advanced characterization, acoustic processes
- (Nano-)magnetoceramics, field and material equations, polarization mechanisms, classification and applications of nanomagnetoceramics, Stoner-Wohlfarth model
- (Nano-)dielectrics, roadmap for electrical ceramics, polarization mechanisms, temperature and frequency behavior, ferroelectrics, piezoelectrics, pyroelectrics, nanodielectrics, and applications
- (Nano-)semiconductor ceramics, MOS, TFT, and MOTF developments, elemental and compound semiconductors, intrinsic semiconductors, impurity semiconductors, and influencing parameters
- Optoceramics, historical developments, opt. Transmission conditions, optoceramic processing, solid-state lasers, scintillators, electro-opto-ceramics, lenses
- Nanomedicine, classification of bioceramic materials, bioceramics in nanomedicine, process technology of HA bioceramics, medical ceramics, dental and nano-TE ceramics
The knowledge acquired in the lecture "Ceramics Fundamentals" is assumed to be sufficient to understand the content.
