| ME 50300 - Micro-And-Nano-Scale Energy Transfer Processes |
|
Credit Hours: 3.00. Transport of energy in natural and fabricated micro- and nano-scale structures. Physical nature of energy transport by three carriers-electrons, phonons, and photons. Bulk material properties (e.g., thermal/electrical conductivity) are derived from statistical particle transport theories. Effects of spatial confinement on bulk properties are quantified. Contemporary interdisciplinary engineering applications. Typically offered Spring.
3.000 Credit hours Syllabus Available Levels: Undergraduate, Graduate, Professional Schedule Types: Distance Learning, Lecture Offered By: School of Mechanical Engr Department: Mechanical Engineering Course Attributes: Upper Division May be offered at any of the following campuses: West Lafayette Continuing Ed West Lafayette Learning Outcomes: 1. Gain an understanding of the fundamental elements of solid-state physics. 2. Develop skills to derive continuum physical properties from sub-continuum principles. 3. Apply statistical and physical principles to describe energy transport in modern small-scale materials and devices. |
