Course Description
Fundamental material, electrical, and chemical properties of solid metal, semiconductor, insulator, and organic surfaces applied to selected gas/solid surface chemical reactions important in semiconductor processing and heterogeneous catalysis. This course is designed to introduce students to the chemistry and physics of solid surfaces and interfaces with an emphasis on the gas/solid interface. The first half of the course will be devoted to learning the fundamental material, electrical, and chemical properties of solid surfaces. The fundamentals will be applied in the second half of the course to topics in chemical catalysis and integrated circuit manufacture. Graduate-level requirements include completion of two projects of their choice with the approval of the instructor.
