Cíle předmětu
This course covers advanced principles of Nanochemistry with the emphasis on five typical nanomaterials: silica, gold, CdSe, iron oxides, and carbon. The lectures focus on the physico-chemical methods for the characterization of structure, morphology and properties of nanomaterials, on the relation between structure and properties of nanomaterials, and on the synthetic methods including self-assembly.
