MATSCI 185: Quantum Mechanics for Materials Science

Quantum mechanics occupies a very unusual place among theories: it contains classical mechanics as a limiting case, yet at the same time it requires its own formulation. This course serves as an entry to the foundations of quantum mechanics that are relevant to the properties of materials. We build up our foundation of quantum mechanics from simple principles, and then apply them to understanding of atoms and the periodic table. From there then put atoms together in arrangements in solids and investigate how materials properties may emerge. Along the way we will encounter modern applications of quantum mechanics relating to scattering, measurement theory, and quantum information processing.

MATSCI 195: Waves and Diffraction in Solids (MATSCI 205, PHOTON 205)

The elementary principals of x-ray, vibrational, and electron waves in solids. Basic wave behavior including Fourier analysis, interference, diffraction, and polarization. Examples of wave systems, including electromagnetic waves from Maxwell's equations. Diffracted intensity in reciprocal space and experimental techniques such as electron and x-ray diffraction. Lattice vibrations in solids, including vibrational modes, dispersion relationship, density of states, and thermal properties. Free electron model. Basic quantum mechanics and statistical mechanics including Fermi-Dirac and Bose-Einstein statistics. Prerequisite: MATSCI 193/203 or consent of instructor. Undergraduates register for 195 for 4 units; graduates register for 205 for 3 units.

MATSCI 212: Rate Processes in Materials

Diffusion and phase transformations in materials. Diffusion topics: Fick's laws, atomic theory of diffusion, the generalized flux equations, diffusion in a chemical potential and mass advection. Phase transformation topics: nucleation, growth, spinodal decomposition and interface phenomena. Material builds on the mathematical, thermodynamic, and statistical mechanical foundations of undergraduate physical chemistry and of the prerequisite. Prerequisites: MATSCI 181/211. Undergraduates register for 182 for 4 units; Graduates register for 212 for 3 units. Please sign up for Discussion section 182-Section 02 or 212-Section 02.

MATSCI 225: Biochips and Medical Imaging (EE 225, SBIO 225)

The course covers state-of-the-art and emerging bio-sensors, bio-chips, imaging modalities, and nano-therapies which will be studied in the context of human physiology including the nervous system, circulatory system and immune system. Medical diagnostics will be divided into bio-chips (in-vitro diagnostics) and medical and molecular imaging (in-vivo imaging). In-depth discussion on cancer and cardiovascular diseases and the role of diagnostics and nano-therapies.

MATSCI 230: Materials Science Colloquium

May be repeated for credit.
Terms: Aut, Win, Spr | Units: 1 | Repeatable for credit

MATSCI 299: Practical Training

Educational opportunities in high-technology research and development labs in industry. Qualified graduate students engage in internship work and integrate that work into their academic program. Following the internship, students complete a research report outlining their work activity, problems investigated, key results, and any follow-on projects they expect to perform. Student is responsible for arranging own employment. See department student services manager before enrolling.nn*If you do not see your faculty's name listed, please email msestudentservices@stanford.edu the faculty name and the quarter you plan to take the course.
