Nanoscience (NANO)
NANO*3600 Computational Methods in Materials Science Winter Only (LEC: 3, LAB: 3) [0.50]
Many computational techniques have been brought to bear on the study of nanostructured matter. This course will present several of these techniques and will introduce a number of computational packages that can be used to study matter. Monte Carlo and ab initio methods along with molecular dynamics simulations will be studied, with an emphasis upon the implementation of the software packages and the appropriate interpretation of the results.

NANO*3800 Molecular and Nanoscale Spectroscopy Winter Only (LEC: 3, LAB: 3) [0.50]
Spectroscopy is the study of the interaction between light and matter and is the principal method to understand matter's structure and function. This course will examine the many spectroscopic techniques employed in the different spectral regions. Applications to probe matter organized as molecules and also as nanostructures such as self-assembled monolayers and quantum dots will be studied.
