Total Hours: 54 Credit: 3

Textbook/Teaching materials:Functional Composite Materials and Their Applications, Liu Xiongya, Chemical Industry Press, Jan. 2007

Course Description：Composite materials (or composites for short) are engineered materials made from two or more constituent materials with significantly different mechanical or physical or chemical properties which remain separate and distinct on a macroscopic level (in some cases, also on a microscopic level) within the finished structure. There are two categories of constituent materials: matrix and reinforcement. At least one portion of each type is required. The matrix material surrounds and supports the reinforcement materials by maintaining their relative positions. The reinforcements impart their special mechanical and physical/chemical properties to enhance the matrix properties. A synergism produces material properties unavailable from the individual constituent materials, while the wide variety of matrix and strengthening materials allows the designer of the product or structure to choose an optimum combination in order to fulfill various application requirements. Functional composite materials, aiming at non-loading applications, have excellent physical, chemical, biological, or mutual conversion functionalities, and, thus, belong to functional materials. With the rapid development of materials science, material compositeness is one of the inevitable trends in materials development. Because functional composite materials have advantages of big freedom in design and have extremely wide application areas, they have very broad development prospects. Nowadays, functional composite materials have become one of the indispensable advanced materials in aerospace, transportation, architectural engineering, electric equipment, chemical engineering, sports, medicine, national defense and war industry, etc. Moreover, funtional composite materials themselves are developing from simple function to multiple functions, structure-property integration, alertness, and intelligence, and have made great progress. This course will systematically describe the basic principles, functionalities and properties, consitutent materials, preparation techniques, and relative applications of various functional composite materials.

Textbook/Teaching materials:Solid State Physics, Jianguo Zhu, et.al., Science Press, Sept. 2005

Course Description：Solid state physics is one of the most fast development section of physcs in 20th centry. Solid materials are formed from densely-packed atoms, with intense interaction forces between them. These interactions are responsible for the mechanical (e.g. hardness and elasticity), thermal, electrical, magnetic and optical properties of solids. Depending on the material involved and the conditions in which it was formed, the atoms may be arranged in a regular, geometric pattern (crystalline solids, which include metals and ordinary water ice) or irregularly (an amorphous solid such as common window glass).

The bulk of solid-state physics theory and research is focused on crystals, largely because the periodicity of atoms in a crystal — its defining characteristic — facilitates mathematical modeling, and also because crystalline materials often have electrical, magnetic, optical, or mechanical properties that can be exploited for engineering purposes.

The forces between the atoms in a crystal can take a variety of forms. For example, in a crystal of sodium chloride (common salt), the crystal is made up of ionic sodium and chlorine, and held together with ionic bonds. In others, the atoms share electrons and form covalent bonds. In metals, electrons are shared amongst the whole crystal in metallic bonding. Finally, the noble gases do not undergo any of these types of bonding. In solid form, the noble gases are held together with van der Waals forces resulting from the polarisation of the electronic charge cloud on each atom. The differences between the types of solid result from the differences between their bonding.
