In this class, the materials such as semiconductor, ceramics from atomic and molecular level are studied in order to realize the innovation which supports the next generation. The material design and forming method of devices such as solar cells, batteries, superconductors, and magnetic materials will be lectured. Electrical, magnetic and optical properties of materials are also lectured widely.

Interest for the structure of materials, synthetic methods, thermodynamics and kinetics of the formation process, phase diagrams, optical, electrical, chemical and properties of semiconductors and ceramics materials and their evaluation methods, and diffraction for structural analysis is needed.
