Descriptif

The role of chemistry in energy is explored in this course through an overview in electrochemistry and electroanalysis, old and state-of-the-art battery technology, and a first introduction to nanotechnology and nanomaterials. It is also planned an experimental lab to create ultimate perovskites-based solar cells. This intermediate-level chemistry course also explores topics such as chemistry in water, namely acid/base, complexation equilibrium and selectivity in chemical transformations.

We continue offering experimental labs, up to 7 during the course, to strengthen concepts and gain experimental skills that will be key for future lab internships or postgraduate projects.
