Objectives of the Course
The aim of this lecture is to provide students to gain knowledge about nanomaterials and their applications which have been developed in the field of nanoscience and nanotechnology, and learning the structure & function relations in materials. In this lecture, the techniques used in the characterization of nanomaterials will be elaborated in details. In addition, students are aimed to learn techniques used in literature research and analyze the current scientific studies about specific nanomaterias.

Learning Outcomes PO MME
