MTSC 6110G - Thermodynamics and Statistical Mechanics of Materials


This one-semester course provides a comprehensive introduction to thermodynamics and statistical mechanics of materials, such as semiconductors, amorphous and soft materials, liquids and their mixtures, polymers and inhomogeneous materials. The course covers phase transitions and phase equilibrium, order-disorder phenomena, point defects in crystals and the statistical thermodynamics of interfaces. Nonequilibrium thermodynamics is briefly introduced. The course provides the background knowledge for students to read the literature in the field and to use it in their research.
Credit hours: 3
Prerequisite(s): Undergraduate thermodynamics, statistical mechanics and satisfaction of admission requirements for the MSc program.
