Učební cíle

This course covers the basic principles of Materials Chemistry with the emphasis on inorganic materials. The lecture focuses on the relation between structure and properties of materials. Synthetic methods are grouped according to the physical state of reactants: solid, liquid, and gaseous. Fabrication methods of different shapes, such as fibers, thin films, and nanoparticles, are also covered.
