Synopsis:

The course will cover the topics of materials such as Piezoelectrics, pyroelectrics and ferroelectrics without lead, Multiferroics, Special magnetic elements, Carbon materials and carbon nanomaterials, Bio-inspired materials and hybrid organic inorganic materials, Polymers and composites containing polymer for electrical engineering, Nanofibers, Metals ( ODS, HEA alloys) with controlled content of amorphous / crystalline / nanocrystalline mass, Metals with extreme dependence of electrical resistance on temperature, mechanical load and its influence on material behavior, Carbides and nitrides (MAX phase). Critical methods for study of these materials will be discussed - Characterization of materials by diffraction and spectroscopic techniques, Characterization of materials by microscopy (SEM, TEM, polarized light, confocal), Characterization of materials by impedance analyzers, Modeling and simulation of temperature and el. fields.

Requirements:

Students must obtain the Aseesment based on reports from laboratory measurements and test results and pass the final exam.

Previous recommended knowledge: Physics 1,2; Elmag. field.

Basic knowledge in production of metals, semiconductors, ceramic and polymer insulators. Solid state physics. Characterization of materials.

The knowledge can be completed on Moodle from the materials for the subjects AE0B13NNT, AE1B13MVE and A1B13MVE.

Syllabus of lectures:

Topics:

- Lead-free piezoelectrics, pyroelectrics and ferroelectrics

- Multiferroics and special magnetics

- Carbon materials and carbon nanomaterials

Study Objective:

The subject will use the impedance analyzer Keysight NO Concept 70, which will be simultaneously used for teaching other subjects, e.g. doctoral subject Physics of dielectrics. In Exercises 2, 4, and 7, the instrument range includes frequencies from 1 MHz to 3 GHz and temperatures from -160 to + 400 ° C. It will be able to measure ceramic dielectrics of various properties, including extremely low-loss and including substances with transformation temperatures in the order of hundreds of degrees Celsius. Students will be acquainted with the measurement and evaluation of results from a device belonging to the absolute world top in their class.
