Class Objectives
/Class Outline
The objective of this laboratory work is to understand the basic concepts and principles underlying  materials sciences by learning and performing experiments.

In “Laboratory Work in Material Sciences D”, students will conduct experiments on

I. Colloid
II. Observation of the microscopic dynamics of molecules or atoms in a crystal using light absorption or scattering. They will also learn the fundamentals of these experimental methods and of the microscopic structure and dynamics of materials.
