Overview

The Value added Education Courses aim to provide additional learner centric graded skill oriented training, with the primary objective of improving the employability skills of students.

VACs Courses introducing Principles of nanomaterials and it’s characterizations for UG Courses Determination of the structural character and chemical composition of a material is an essential activity of material science. After completion of the course the student should have obtained knowledge ofcharacterization of materials by introducing the basic principles and performing experiences of a large range of techniques used to characterize different types of materials

Objectives of Event

  • The course will focus on the structure-property correlations and how these could be unravelled by the use of simple characterization methods such as optical and scanning electron microscopy, x-ray diffraction and Raman spectroscopy.
  • To understand the characterization methods used for state-of-the-art materials.
  • To appreciate the results from characterization methods and their reliability. 
  • To appreciate the multiscale and multidisciplinary nature of materials

After the completion of this course students will be able to:

CO 1:  

Explain the basics of nanomaterials and their industrial applications.
CO 2:  

Explain the crystal geometry of any crystal structure.
CO 3:  

Understand and determine the grain size of nanomaterials using XRD technique.
CO 4:  

Demonstrate the spectroscopy techniques and determine the band gap energy.
CO 5:  

Explain the electron microscopy characterization for surface morphology.
CO 6: Apply materials characterization methods based on XRD, spectroscopy, microscopy techniques to various research problems
