About the course
The course includes detail on solid-state synthesis, solution-based synthesis (co-precipitation, solvothermal, sol-gel, microwave synthesis), synthesis from the melt, combustion synthesis, gas phase synthesis for thin films (PVD, CVD, sputtering), and polymer synthesis. It covers scattering techniques (e.g. XRD, PDF), spectroscopic techniques (e.g. IR, Raman, XPS, XAS, UV-vis), imaging (e.g. SEM, AFM, TEM), methods for studying materials properties such as electrochemical, mechanical and magnetic characterisation.
