High Functional Materials

Recent advancement in funcitonal materials posed a serious challenge to materials scientist. The development of new materials require not only high skill but also deep insight into the fundamentals of materials physics. In this lecture, materials developments are discussed on the basis of quantum mechanics. Understanding of electronic structures of various elements can lead to the developments of new functional materials.
