  1. Materials Science (C) By Linda (Lin) Wozniewski lwoz@iun.edu and Mat Chalker chalker7@gmail.com

  3. Electron conducting & band gaps - Conducting is flow of e- from VB through the C.B. * In metals, CB is linked to VB directly - Semiconductors require some energy input to overcome a gap between VB and CB - Insulators have a band gap too large to overcome, thus they insulate against e- conduction.

  4. Characteristics of Light Wave-like properties: Wavelength (λ) or Frequency (ν) c = λν (c is the speed of light, 3.0x108 m/s) Particle-like properties: A photon is a packet of energy (E) E = hν = h c/ λ (h= 6.6 x 10-34 J s) E = 2.0x10-25/ λ (hc= 2.0 x 10-25 J m)

  5. Band gap, quantum effects, color As size decreases, the electrons of the nanoparticle become confined to a smaller space, and the band gap increases

  6. Experiments • Given the picture of a droplet, a protractor and a ruler, the students should be able to measure the contact angle • Given a pan of water covered in chalk dust, the students should be able to measure the approximate thickness of a detergent molecule or Oleic Acid

  7. Questions continued • Given a series of reagents students should be able to arrange the reagents from least to most hydrophobic based on the contact angle

  8. Questions continued • What type of Cell is this? • How many tungsten atoms occupy a unit cell? • What is the radius of a tungsten atom • Based on the unit cell dimensions, what is the density of tungsten?

  9. Questions Continued

  10. Questions Continued • The deflection d of the mid-point of a centrally loaded simple beam of uniform rectangular cross section is given by d = (Wl3)/(4ab3Y) For a circular beam of radius r the expression becomes d = (Wl3)/(12πr4Y) where Y is the Young’s Modulus

  11. Questions Continued • Which class generally has the highest young’s modulus, metals, polymers or ceramics? • -Ceramics • Amorphous microstructures are most prevalent in which materials class? • Polymers • What characteristic of metals makes members of the class such good conductors of electricity? • - Bonded Metallic atoms share electrons in a “sea of electrons”

  12. Questions Continued • The most prevalent element by mass in a material is C. What class is the material most likely to belong to? • Polymers • Aluminum is one of the most common elements in the Earth’s crust, but pure Al was extremely rare until the late 19th century. Why is this? -Refining Al requires a large amount of electricity, which was not available in sufficient quantities until the late 19th century

  13. Questions Continued • What is the size of the grain labeled “A” above? • 15 μm • If the average grain size in the material were 5μm, would this material have a higher or lower yield strength? • Higher • What material class is most this material most likely to be in? • Metals A • What material is this? • A high-carbon steel alloy (specifically from the Titanic, if anyone is interested…) • What is one technique that one might use to increase the average grain size in this material? • - Annealing would be the most common, although there are other options

  14. Questions Continued • What caused the lines in the image above • Scanning electron microscope image - Charging from the electron beam – lack of conduction in the target sample • What does the machine below measure? • The fatigue limit of materials (by repeatedly cycling a material through stress and counting cycles)

  15. SAMPLE ONLY, NOT A REFERENCE MATERIAL SOME DATA MAY NOT BE 100% ACCURATE For a real test I would use more materials and data Questions Continued Which material would be best suited for: Spacecraft reentry tiles • Low-density Alumina blocks (due to melting temp and density) Ferris Wheel tie-rods • Medium-carbon Steel (due to strength and price) Tennis racket frame • Ti6Al4V (due to strength and density) Shampoo bottles -HDPE

  16. Questions Continued • Calculate particle size based on UV-Vis spectroscopy - Particle in a Box CdSe Quantum dots, 1.5 - 2 nm in size http://www.beilstein-journals.org/bjnano/single/articleFullText.htm?publicId=2190-4286-1-14#E1

  17. Questions Continued • The spacing between principle {200} planes of NaCl is 0.282 nm. It is found that 1st order Bragg reflection for this spacing occurs at a 2θ angle of 30º. • What is the wavelength of x-ray used? nλ = d(sinθ) .282(sin(16º))=155 nm

  18. Experiments Continued • Given a type of crystal packing structure, some toothpicks and marshmallows, the students should be able to model common crystal packing structures • Given a picture or model and a Miller index, students should be able to determine which atoms are being cut across.

  19. Questions Continued • Stress, strain, density, deformation under load
