Charge Transport in Electronic Materials

1 Unit · Graduate

Key models of electron and ion transport in hard and soft, crystalline and non-crystalline materials, including hopping, tunneling, polaronic transport and mixed conduction. Characterization methods including multi-point resistivity, impedance and noise spectroscopy, photoexcitation-based methods. Group-based learning from assigned papers in primary literature, supplemental lecture/discussion based on student constructed concept maps, independent project proposing extension to frontier materials.
