Materials science From New World Encyclopedia Jump to: navigation search Previous (Materialism) Next (Mathematical logic) The Materials Science Tetrahedron shows the four main areas in which materials are studied. It often includes Characterization at the center. Materials science is an interdisciplinary field involving the study of different types of materials and the applications of knowledge about these materials to various areas of science and engineering. It combines elements of applied physics and chemistry , as well as chemical mechanical civil and electrical engineering. Materials science and materials engineering are often combined into a larger field of study. Materials used in early human history included metals glasses , and clay-based ceramics . The past century has witnessed a surge in the development of new materials, including plastics , advanced ceramics, semiconductors superconductors , liquid crystals, Bose-Einstein condensates, and nanoscale substances, with a wide range of applications. Furthermore, materials science has grown to include testing these more exotic forms of condensed matter and developing new physics theories to explain their behavior. Consequently, materials science has been propelled to the forefront at many academic institutions and research facilities. Efforts to apply ethical considerations to Materials Science quickly reach what is a common barrier between ethics and the combined fields of science and technology. An individual scientist, for example, who would want to conduct research toward such a noble goal as developing a light-weight and durable structural plastic that is readily recyclable must first either find and join a research group that is already funded to support such research or find an independent funding source for such research.

With significant media attention to nanoscience and nanotechnology in the recent years, materials science has been propelled to the forefront at many universities, sometimes controversially. In materials science, rather than haphazardly looking for and discovering materials and exploiting their properties, one instead aims to understand materials fundamentally so that new materials with the desired properties can be created. The basis of all materials science involves relating the desired properties and relative performance of a material in a certain application to the structure of the atoms and phases in that material through characterization.

The department has excellent laboratory and teaching facilities, including a computer room for students and a well-stocked library. Students attend a course on entrepreneurship in the Sad Business School, where they learn how to write a business plan, raise capital and start a company. Students can gain industrial experience through a voluntary summer placement, they learn teamwork through team design projects, and develop IT and presentation skills. There is an option to study a foreign language in the Language Centre or take a supplementary subject in another subject area. The Oxford degree has the unique feature of an eight-month research project in the fourth year, when students join the research teams of one of the strongest Department of Materials in the UK, or sometimes work in a prestigious overseas university or an industrial laboratory. A wide range of assessment methods is employed in the award of the degree: 50% of the degree classification is determined by written examination papers; the remainder is allocated to practical work, assessed coursework and a thesis based on the fourth year research project. The degree is accredited at MEng level by the Engineering Council.

Overview People Research Groups Research Centers ... Home On October 21, 2010, the EAS division participated in the Caltech ShakeOut drill. A key element of the success was the Building Assessment Teams (BATs). These teams consist of graduate students trained to assess the outside of buildings for structural damage in the event of an emergency, and label buildings with: safe, caution, or closed. They perform an important building triage function for the Institute in the case of a major earthquake. Thank you to all who participate in the ShakeOut. Amnon Yariv , Martin and Eileen Summerfield Professor of Applied Physics and Professor of Electrical Engineering, has received one of the highest honors bestowed by the United States government on scientists, and engineers. He is a recipient of the National Medal of Science . Professor Yariv's research group has pioneered the field of optoelectronics. Many innovations such as distributed Feedback (DFB) Semiconductor Lasers, Integrated Optoelectronic Circuits, Optical Phase Conjugation, External Cavity Tunable Semiconductor Lasers, Quantum Well Infrared Photodetectors (QWIP's), and all-fiber add/drop filters have found their beginnings in his research group. Currently, his group’s research aims at developing the new technologies that will be mandated by the seemingly endless appetite for optical bandwidth. Specifically, they are working at extending, to the field of laser optics, some key ideas that form the foundation of the microwaves and the radio frequencies fields.
