CHEM 5390

Course Description

Covers physical methods for characterizing structure, composition, & surface chemistry of inorganic nanomaterials. Methods discussed include electron & probe microscopies, X-ray techniques, vibrational spectroscopies, & UV-visible spectroscopy. We will explore the use of these & other techniques across ex situ, in situ, & operando conditions for the determination of structure-function relationships & reaction mechanisms.
