Structural Analysis of Nanomaterials
Structural Analysis of Nanomaterials. Instructor: Prof. Kaushik Pal, Department of Mechanical and Industrial Engineering, IIT Roorkee. Structural analysis of nanomaterials is an important part of Materials Science and Nanoscience and Nanotechnology which deals with the study of crystal structure of materials and their defects. It is a prerequisite for the understanding of properties of nanomaterials to have a detailed knowledge of the structure from the atomic/molecular (local) level to the crystal structure and to the microstructure (mesoscopic scale and defect structure). The primary goal of structural analysis of nanomaterials is aiming at both investigating the structure-property relationship and discovering new properties, in order to achieve relevant improvements in current state-of-the art materials.

| Lecture 19 - Microscopic Structural Analysis of Nanomaterials (cont.) |
This lecture discusses some of the microscopic analysis techniques used for studying the nanomaterials, which include: Scanning Probe characterization techniques (STM, AFM, XPS), and Ion Particle Probe characterization techniques (NMR, XRD, RS, SAXS).
