About

This course will familiarize the student to the science related to various phenomena observed at the nanoscale. Following an introduction to the basic ideas of nanoscience and nanotechnology, several examples will be discussed which highlight the impact of nanoscale on various properties of technological interest. Technologies built on these phenomena will be discussed.

Intended audience: Engineering and Science students at the UG and PG level

Prerequisites: First two years of undergraduate course of Engineering (Introductory, undergraduate level Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics)
