69129	Lecture	AVG	11:00AM -12:20PM	MW	206 Transportation Building	Kim, H Zhang, Y van der Zande, A	Part of Term: 1 Date Range: 08/23/21-12/08/21 Credit: 4 hours Section Title: Nano-Fab & Characterization Section Info: Full Title: Nanoscale Fabrication and Characterization This course will provide a practical understanding of state-of-the-art, nanoscale fabrication and characterization approaches, the fundamental principles behind these advanced techniques. Lectures will introduce students to topics including top-down and bottom-up paradigms of nano-fabrication, characterization of structures smaller than can be resolved with light, the theoretical underpinnings of quantum properties of nanomaterials that these technique probe and engineer, and applications at the forefront of nanoresearch. The focus will be on two dimensional materials, which will be used as a case study to understand the broader challenges and opportunities of making and using nanoscale systems. There will be two concurrent courses, ME498/598, for 3 credits and 4 credits respectively. The 3 credit option will include lectures, homework, and a final project exploring emerging techniques. The 4 credit option will add lab demonstrations where students will apply course concepts to synthesize monolayer graphene, characterize nanoscale structure and properties, and engineer devices like graphene field effect transistors, as well as postlab assignments learning to analyze and interpret data produced during the labs. Restriction(s): Restricted to Graduate - Urbana-Champaign.
68952	Lecture	DFS	ARRANGED	n.a.	Location Pending	Socie, D	Part of Term: 1 Date Range: 08/23/21-12/08/21 Credit: 2 hours Section Title: Fun with Mechanics Section Info: This course is being offered to give graduate students an opportunity to participate in a creative design project course that is of a competitive nature. In the first semester ( 2 credit hours ) small student teams of 3 persons will design a machine to meet the specified technical requirements of the competition and provide an engineering analysis that shows that their design is likely to be successful. Fabrication will take place in the second semester ( 2 credit hours). The project consists of designing and building a vehicle that is powered by a cordless electric drill that carries a human driver. A competition consisting of racing around the Engineering Quad will be held at the end of the second semester in the spring of 2021. Previous years projects included vehicles powered by planar leg mechanisms and diwheels. The Fall 2020 project will require that the vehicles be powered by a scissors mechanism. This course has no lectures or exams, grades are based solely on the project. Students are encouraged to take advantage of all the resources the campus has to offer. Restriction(s): Restricted to Graduate - Urbana-Champaign.
