Educational goal:

The objective of this course is to provide to students knowledge from the field of nanotechnologies. Introduce students to nanomaterials, nano and microstructures. Introduce students to techniques for production of nanomaterials and fabrication of nano and microstructures. Introduce students to mechanical, tribological and other physical properties at nanoscale. Introduce student to techniques for characterization of nanomaterials, nano and microstructures.

Educational outcome:

Upon successful completion of this course, students will be able to: 1. name development strategies in nanotechnologies; 2. name types of nanoparticles and nanotubes, and give examples of their application; 3. name types of nanomaterials and their properties; 4. list and describe nano and microelectromechanical systems; 5. name, describe and compare techniques for production of nanomaterials, and techniques for fabrication of nano and microstructures; 6. name, describe and compare techniques for characterization of nanomaterials, nano and microstructures; 7. perform characterization of nanomaterials, and nano and microstructures by scanning probe microscopy techniques; 8. name risks and basic safety issues in nanotechnology.

Course content:

Introduction to nanotechnologies. Strategies for development in nanotechnology. Nanotechnology market. Nanoparticles and nanotubes. 3D and 2D nanomaterials. Nanocomposite materials. Nano and micro electromechanical systems (NEMS and MEMS.) Nano and micro manufacturing. Nano safety and risks management. Nanomechanics. Nanotribology. Characterization of nanomaterials.

Teaching methods:

Teaching is held interactively as lectures and laboratory practice. During lectures, the theoretical part of the teaching content is presented and supplemented by characteristic practical examples for better understanding. During lectures, discussion between students is frequently initiated in order to increase motivation, expand understanding of presented matter, broaden perspectives and clarify potential ambiguities. During laboratory practice, the obtained knowledge is practically applied on the available laboratory equipment. Apart from lectures and practice, consultations are held regularly.
