• Cars
– Communication
• Cell phones
• Laptops
– Home
• Silicone kitchen tools
• Watches
• And our future
– Energy!
MATERIALS SCIENCE IS…
• Highly interdisciplinary

Chemistry
Physics
Electrical and computer engineering
Mechanical engineering
Chemical engineering and materials science
– Orthopedics
– Aerospace engineering
– Civil engineering
– And more…

MAJOR TRENDS
•
•
•
•
Biomaterials & biocompatible materials
Energy
Self-assembled materials
Nanomaterials
BIOMATERIALS & BIOCOMPATIBLE
MATERIALS
• Drug delivery devices
• Replacement parts
– Hearts
– Joints
• Regeneration of tissues
– Blood
– Bone
– Skin
ENERGY
• Recognition of problems with fossil fuels
– Environmental effects
– Dwindling supply and increasing costs
• Two aspects of particular interest
– Fuel cells
– Solar cells
FUEL CELLS
• Continuously fueled electrochemical devices
– Fuel (hydrogen or hydrocarbons) in anode
– Oxygen in cathode
• Output – electrical energy
• Important to “hydrogen economy”
SOLAR CELLS
• AKA photovoltaics
• More environmentally friendly
• First generation
– Silicon wafers
• Second generation
– Thin film technologies
• Third generation
–

Hot carriers
Multiple electron-hole pair creation
Thermophotonics
Organic-based photovoltaics
SELF-ASSEMBLED MATERIALS &
NANOMATERIALS
• Self-assembled materials
– Allows greater control of structure
– Of interest for many different kinds of materials
• Nanomaterials
– Broad appeal
– Numerous applications make use
• Biomaterials
– Drug or iron delivery in bloodstream
• Fuel cells
– Increasing surface area of catalysts
• Semiconductors
