Electrochemistry and growth of single crystal wide band gap semi-conductors (GRK 2495 Lecture)5 ECTS
(englische Bezeichnung: Electrochemistry and growth of single crystal wide band gap semi-conductors)

Lectures:

• • Growth and Characterization of Single Crystal Semi-Conductors
    (Vorlesung, 3 SWS, Peter Wellmann)
  • Advanced Industrial Electrochemistry
    (Vorlesung, 3 SWS, Shinji Kawasaki)

Inhalt:

The modules of this lecture series consist of a course held by one Japanese Principal Investigator and a German Principal Investigator from the GRK 2495 Energy Conversion Systems. In the first part the following topics will be discussed: 1. Fundamentals of Crystal Growth, 2. Crystal Growth and Epitaxy of the wide bandgap semiconductors SiC, GaN/AlN, Diamond, ZnSe and Ga2O3, 3. Semiconductor Wafer Characterization (optical microscopy, birefringence, defect etching, wafer mapping by photoluminescence, Raman and optical absorption). In the second part students will learn the fundamentals of electrochemistry. They will also learn the basic principles and present problems of several kinds of electrochemical energy devices such as Li ion batteries, Fuel cells, Solar cells, and others. This course also provides the students with the opportunity to discuss the challenges and potential solutions related to environmental problems. This course consists of the following content: Fundamentals of electrochemistry, Electric Double Layer Capacitors, Lithium Ion Batteries, Nano-carbon Electrodes, Fuel Cells, Solar Cells, Photo-catalysts.

Bemerkung:

All modules from this series may be participated by master students from the courses: CE, EEI, ET, MB, ME, MWT, NT, WING and MAP.

Organisatorisches:

This module is coordinated by GRK 2495 - Coordinator Julia Berger (julia.b.berger@fau.de)
