Module title:Metamaterials
Module codeENGM016
Module lecturers: 
Module credits:15

This multidisciplinary module will focus on innovative materials that combine mechanical properties with unusual chemical, optical or electromagnetic properties. These materials include, but are not limited to, nanomaterials, carbon-based and organic materials, hybrid materials and metamaterials. You will investigate the application of these materials through research showcases in opto-electronics, energy harvesting and storage and wearables.

This module will cover the principles behind the behaviour of nanomaterials, as well as nanofabrication techniques and advanced applications of nanostructured and nanoengineered materials, and the issues associated with the manufacturing and commercialisation of such materials.

Please note that all modules are subject to change, please get in touch if you have any questions about this module.
