INORGANIC MATERIALS CHEMISTRY
A deep knowledge of the topics tackled during the courses of General Chemistry and Inorganic Chemistry, as well as of the fundamentals of Mathematics and Physics, is a beneficial prerequisite to tackle the course topics.
Part A final examination consists of an interview during which the students will be examined on all the topics tackled during Part A lessons. The interview is satisfactory if it is worth a mark amounting at least to 18/30.
TEACHING AIMS
The course aims at widening the students’ knowledge and comprehension in the fields of Inorganic Chemistry, Materials Chemistry and Structural Chemistry. To the aim, as representative examples, a number of cutting-edge inorganic materials classes will be presented, focusing on their chemico-physical, structural and functional properties, as well as on their up-to-date instrumental characterization techniques.
EXPECTED LEARNING RESULTS
As a result of the course, the students are expected to i) understand the relationships among chemico-physical, structural and functional properties; ii) employ the knowledge at point i) to rationalize the behaviour of advanced inorganic materials not tackled by the course but described in the scientific literature.
