Spring 2021 MCEN5042 Heat Transfer
Spring 2020 MCEN5228-014 Introduction to Nanoscale Transport
This course introduces the basic concepts and methods to understand nanoscale transport phenomena that are ubiquitous in microelectronics, nano-enabled renewable energy technology, heat transfer, nano-optics, Micro/Nano-Electro-Mechanical-Systems (MEMS/NEMS), as well as emerging quantum technologies. Relevant laboratory and real-world applications and examples will be discussed. Topics covered in this course include basics of solid-state physics, quantum mechanics and electromagnetics, nano-electronic transport, nanoscale heat transfer, experimental techniques, and instrumentations for characterizing/testing nanoscale materials and devices.
