The study programmes with the given course

Objective of the course – aims of the course unit:
The aim of this subject is to familliarize students with the modern trends in utillization of molecular materials in high-tech applications such nanotechnology and bionanotechnology, organic electronic, senzors and others.
Objective of the course – learning outcomes and competences:
Students will be familiarized with the modern trends in utillization of molecular materials in high-tech applications such nanotechnology and bionanotechnology, organic electronic, senzors and others.
Prerequisites:
General knowledge of chemistry on the bachelor level.
Course contents (annotation):
The aim of the subject is to acquaint students with modern trends in utilization of molecular materials in high-tech applications in different areas of applied chemical industry. Properties of new molecular functional systems will be discussed with respect to their utilization in sensors (photosensors, selective gas sensors and biosensors), optical and electronic devices (organic solar cells, electroluminescence displays and diodes) and other applications (intelligent surfaces, batteries, molecular electronic, non-linear optical elements. etc.). The emphasis is also put on technology and nanotechnology utilization for production of final functional structures.
Teaching methods and criteria:
Teaching methods depend on the type of course unit as specified in the article 7 of BUT Rules for Studies and Examinations.
Assesment methods and criteria linked to learning outcomes:
Classification is based on the students project and final examen.
