Electronic and Mechanical Properties of Materials
3.225 · Materials Science and Engineering · Graduate · Fall 2007
Prof. Eugene Fitzgerald, Lorna Gibson
This course covers the fundamental concepts that determine the electrical, optical, magnetic and mechanical properties of metals, semiconductors, ceramics and polymers. The roles of bonding, structure (crystalline, defect, energy band and microstructure) and composition in influencing and controlling physical properties are discussed. Also included are case studies drawn from a variety of applications: semiconductor diodes and optical detectors, sensors, thin films, biomaterials, composites and…
