*Navedena porazdelitev ur velja, če je vpisanih vsaj 15 študentov. Drugače se obseg izvedbe kontaktnih ur sorazmerno zmanjša in prenese v samostojno delo. / This distribution of hours is valid if at least 15 students are enrolled. Otherwise the contact hours are linearly reduced and transfered to individual work.

Cilji in kompetence:
Objectives and competences:

Cilj predmeta je seznaniti študente z različnimi
metodami sinteze nanomaterialov. Študent bo znal izbrati primerno metodo sinteze izbranega nanomateriala, poznal bo eksperimentalne omejitve ter prednosti oziroma slabosti posamezne metode.

Cilj se navezuje na kompetence:
- obvladovanje metod in tehnik sinteze nanomaterialov,
- sposobnost za samostojno in skupinsko raziskovalno in razvojno delo,
- sposobnost uporabe znanja v praksi, in
- delno tudi razvoj integralnega načina mišljenja ter sposobnost za komunikacijo s strokovnjaki drugih disciplin in področij.

The objective of the course is to introduce to
students methods of synthesis of nanomaterials.
The student will be able to select a suitable method of synthesis of a given nanomaterial, he will recognize experimental limitations, and advantages/disadvantages of a selected method.

This objective is related to competences:
- mastering of methods and techniques of synthesis of nanomaterials,
- ability to carry out independent as well as team
R&D work,
- ability to use the knowledge in practice,
- and partially also to the development of an integral way of thinking and the ability to communicate with experts from other disciplines and fields.

Predvideni študijski rezultati:
Intendeded learning outcomes:

Študent bo:
- obvladal principe različnih metod sinteze nanomaterialov,
- razumel mehanizme metod sinteze nanomaterialov,
- izbral primerno sintezno metodo sinteze glede na eksperimentalne omejitve,
- uporabil primerno metodo karakterizacije,
- interpretiral rezultate karakterizacije,
- vzpostavil sposobnost komunikacije v angleškem jeziku na področju sinteze nanomaterialov.

The student will:
- master the principles of different methods of synthesis of nanomaterials,
- understand the mechanisms of different methods of synthesis of nanomaterials,
- select a suitable method of synthesis for a given nanomaterial considering experimental limitations,
- use a suitable method of characterization,
- interpret results of characterization,
- establish the ability to communicate in English in the field of synthesis of nanomaterials.
