60163	Laboratory	LA2	11:00AM -1:30PM	F	Sidney Lu Mech Engr Bldg		Part of Term: 1 Date Range: 08/22/22-12/07/22 Section Title: Nano-Fab & Characterization
55932	Lecture	LC3	11:00AM -12:20PM	TR	Sidney Lu Mech Engr Bldg	Cai, L	Part of Term: 1 Date Range: 08/22/22-12/07/22 Credit: 3 hours Section Title: NanoMFG for Sustainable Energy Section Info: Meeting the world's growing energy needs in a sustainable fashion is one of the most pressing problems today. This course will introduce the scope of the energy problems, define some of the options for sustainable energy, and look into the basic physics and chemistry of emerging sustainable energy technologies including batteries, fuel cells, solar cells, solar fuels, etc. State-of-the-art nanomanufacturing methods and advanced characterization of functional materials for sustainable energy applications will be discussed. Restriction(s): Restricted to Grainger Engineering. Restricted to Undergrad - Urbana-Champaign.

58847	Lecture	LI3	11:00AM -12:20PM	MW	Transportation Building	Zhang, Y van der Zande, A	Part of Term: 1 Date Range: 08/22/22-12/07/22 Credit: 3 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, and 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, 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.Problems with registering, contact Tammy Smith (tssmith1@illinois.edu) or Robbie Vermillion (rvermil2@illinois.edu) and let them know the error message. Restriction(s): Restricted to students with Senior or Graduate class standing.
