1. Course Description

This course is for learning to types and applications of nanomaterials, such as nanoporous materials, activated carbons, metal organic frameworks, zeolite, ceramic, polymer etc, attracting interests. Understand research trends of nanomaterials and the latest trends and applications, especially, of nanoporous materials. Learn the basics of Inorganic Chemistry to understand properties and applications of nanoporous materials. Study the atomic structure and bond theory to understand bonds in nanoporous materials. Also, learn symmetry, point groups, and the molecular orbital to understand structures of nanomaterials and understand their structures using visualization program directly. Understand the basics of coordination chemistry

2. Course Objectives

(1) Stimulate interests and concerns, for nanoscience and nanotechnology.

(2) Understand porous materials such as zeolites, Metal Organic Frameworks, activated carbons.

(3) Understand the recent trends of porous materials that can be used as gas storage and catalysis and recognize the needs of development of porous materials.

(4) Analyze the structural features of various nanoporous materials and Organic-Inorganic hybrid nano-materials through visualize computer programs.

(5) Study atomic structure and bond theory to understand the bond within metal-organic framework.

(6) Study symmetry and point groups to understand structure of porous solids.

(7) Design new porous materials followed by understanding metal-organic Framework.

(8) Understand new materials by knowing the specifics of chemical materials through understanding coordination bonds.

(9) Learn how to get the proper information in a lot of information.

(10) Learn how to obtain the needed information by searching the reported nano-crystalline solids.
