This lecture introduces advanced researches of materials with energy-related functions, and chemistry and technologies behind
these researches. For example, as advanced researches, energy harvesters that are expected as power sources of micro sensors
essential to the IoT society and high performance batteries that are expected to play critical role in environmental energy
systems will be covered. As chemistry and technologies, film growth, vacuum technologies, and so on will be discussed.
The main purpose of this lecture is to overview advanced researches of energy materials development and to understand that
materials creation chemistry can make breakthrough in construction of sustainable society.
- Students will be able to understand a concept of the sustainable energy society and energy flow in it.
- Students will be able to understand the structure and operation principle of the energy harvesters, and to know what is going on in research and development of them.
- Students will be able to understand the structure, operation principle, and merit and demerit of all solid-state batteries, and to know what is going on in research and development of them.
- Students will be able to understand vacuum technologies and film growth chemistry behind the energy materials development.
