After successful completion of the course, students are able to identify different production methods for nanoparticles and nanomaterials, identify the problems of compaction of nanoparticles into compact solids and components, and name specific properties.

Synthesis of nano-powders (ceramic, metallic): deposition of particles from gas-phase, hydrothermal synthesis, polyol-process (introduction) Characterization/analytics: SEM, TEM, AFM, STM, health and safety aspects of nano particles From powders to components: ceramic/metallic nano-composites, problems concerning the retention of the nanostructure with increasing temperature (grain growth, grain growth inhibitor, dispersion hardening), carbon nanotube composites, electronic components, coatings (hardmetals, hard disc,), consolidation processes (SPS, ECAP,), characterization techniques, mechanical properties of nano-composites, microsystems technology
