No limit but advance sign up required (see contact below)
Signup by: 25-Dec-2005
Participants welcome at individual sessions (series)
Prereq: None
This course will provide a foundation for understanding materials issues underpinning three key electronic and electrochemical renewable energy devices: fuel cells, solar cells, and batteries. The operating principles, terminology, and dominant technologies will be reviewed, materials limitations will be discussed, and current research approaches will be presented. Characterization methods for these materials and devices will be presented in both classroom and hands-on settings.
