Entry knowledge
Students who choose this course don’t need to possess any knowledge of electrochemistry, but the knowledge of topics of physical chemistry, relevant to electrochemistry (such as ions in solutions, thermodynamics), is of advantage.
Rules for evaluation and completion of the course
To be passed, this course requires a written doctoral exam at its end.
Aims
Students will foster in this course basic knowledge of electrochemistry and electrochemical processes that are operative in most important today´s electrochemical devices (batteries, solar cells, etc.). Knowledge of these processes is also important for own research and development of various materials, that are suitable for the use in these devices, and further also for the design of new concepts of these devices.
