ELEG 53903 — Electronic Materials
This is a lecture course designed to provide a fundamental introduction to materials science. Upon this fundamental basis, we will survey many of the properties and materials relevant to modern electronics. This course will cover semiconductors, but only briefly. The focus will be on properties and materials not generally well covered in other electrical engineering courses from a materials perspective. This will include, but not be limited to metals, dielectrics, and magnetic and optical materials. Prerequisite: Graduate standing; A knowledge of quantum mechanics is helpful but not required. (Typically offered: Spring)
