Surface Chemistry and Analysis

Graduate

This course covers the formation, characterization and applications of self-assembled monolayers. It introduces students to the process of molecular self-assembly, the preparation of self-assembled monolayers, and the experimental techniques used for their characterization. The first half of the course focuses on these fundamentals. The second half of the course addresses the numerous applications of 251 Winter 2027 Academic Calendar self-assembled monolayers. (3 lecture hours/week). (Prerequisite: CHEM-8820 Introduction to Materials Chemistry, or CHEM-3710 Introduction to Materials Chemistry) (May be offered as a cross-career course with CHEM-4600).
