327-2202-00LSize Effects in Materials4 KP4GR. Spolenak
KurzbeschreibungThe core of this course explains how the behavior of materials changes, when their external dimensions become small (usually on the micro- to nanometer length scale) until quantum effects become dominant. This is illustrated by examples from all materials classes and further substantiated by case studies of applications ranging from micro- and nanoelectronics to optoelectronics.
LernzielTeaching goals:

to learn which materials are used in electronics, microelectronics and optoelectronics and why

to understand how materials properties change when their external dimensions approach the micro- and nanoscale

to grasp the materials and processing issues involved in miniaturized electronic, mechanical and optical systems

to be exposed to state of the art technologies for fabrication and characterization of such systems
InhaltThe core of the course is the materials behavior in small dimensions. Focus will be put on scaling of electronic and mechanical properties, thin film mechanics, device reliability and integration issues when dissimilar materials are joined. Advanced characterization techniques specific to microcomponents will be presented. Finally possible future solutions to further miniaturization, such as carbon nanotubes or 3D integration molecular electronics, will be critically discussed. Excursions to microelectronic companies are part of the course.

Topics include:

Basics
Scaling laws and size effects
Energy scales in materials science
Length scales in materials science
Size-dependent color effects
Mechanical properties
Electronic properties
Measuring properties
Applications:
Fabrication of microcomponents
Materials for Microelectronics and MEMS/NEMS

KurzbeschreibungThis course attempts to prepare the student for a job as a materials engineer in industry. The gap between fundamental materials science and the materials engineering of products should be bridged. The focus lies on the practical application of fundamental knowledge allowing the students to experience application related materials concepts with a strong emphasis on case-study mediated learning.
LernzielTeaching goals:

to learn how materials are selected for a specific application

to understand how materials around us are produced and manufactured

to understand the value chain from raw material (feedstock, ores,...) to application

to be exposed to state of the art technologies for processing, joining and shaping

to be exposed to industry related materials issues and the corresponding language (terminology) and skills

to create an impression of how a job in industry "works", to improve the perception of the demands of a job in industry
InhaltThe general outline for Materials at work is:

Strategic Materials (where do raw materials come from, who owns them, who owns the IP and can they be substituted)
Materials Selection (what is the optimal material (class) for a specific application)
Materials systems (subdivisions include all classical materials classes)
Processing
Joining (assembly)
Shaping
Materials and process scaling (from nm to m and vice versa, from mg to tons)
Sustainable materials manufacturing (cradle to cradle) Recycling (Energy recovery)
Materials testing

Materials at Work I focusses on Materials Selection, Polymers and Metals

Materials at Work II focusses on Metal processing, Ceramics and Surfaces
