Surfaces and Interfaces
This course is an advanced course focusing on science that takes place at surfaces and interfaces. Topics include phenomena at liquid-gas interface (surface tension), liquid-solid interface (wetting, electric double layer), gas-solid interface (UHV techniques, molecular adsorption).
Students who are enrolled in this class shall have sufficient knowledge in ONE of the two streams in their previous learning:
(1) Physical Chemistry; (2) Thermodynamics and crystallography.
