Nach positiver Absolvierung der Lehrveranstaltung sind Studierende in der Lage...Ein Material für eine bestimmte Anwendung zu entwerfen, d. h. mit einer Reihe von Eigenschaften, die für die Anwendung erforderlich sind. Dazu gehört die Fähigkeit, (i) die Synthese eines gewünschten Materials zu konzipieren, (ii) die Verarbeitung eines gewünschten Materials zu konzipieren.

Ultimate learning goal: At the end of this lecture, the students shall be able to design a material for a given application, i.e. bearing a set of properties required for the application. This includes the capability (i) to conceive the synthesis of a desired  material, (ii) conceive the processing of a desired material. 

Intermediate learning goals: At the end of the lecture, the students shall

1. know and understand what a material is 
2. know the most important materials properties 
3. understand which molecular and intermolecular features lead to these materials properties = be able to explain structure-property relationships 
4. be able to identify materials featuring a certain set of properties in the materials space
5. know the major bulk states (crystalline vs. amorphous) and how to synthesize materials in either of the state as a function of the type of material. Know how to analyze if the desired state has been achieved. 
6. know and understand how materials can be further fine tuned by (nano-/micro-) structuring. 
7. know and understand how to combine materials properties (composites, hybrids) at different size scales and complexity levels

Chapter1: Basics of materials (definitions of materials;  materials properties; structure-property relationships) 

Chapter2:  Synthesis of bulk materials (crystalline vs. amorphous solids; synthesis of crystalline solids from solution/melt/gas/solid state; synthesis of amorphous solids from solution/melt/gas/solid state) 

Chapter3: Structuring of materials (nano- and microstructuring; porous materials)

Chapter4: Combination of materials (hybrids, composites)
