COURSE OBJECTIVES:
• To understand and apply the basics of principles of solid state chemistry.
• To identify and apply the concepts involved in the syntheses, structure and physical properties of crystalline inorganic solids.
• To apply various techniques for the preparation of different types of solids.
• To understand the principles of solid characterization techniques.

UNIT I

CRYSTAL STRUCTURE

9

Bond types: molecular, covalent, metallic and ionic. Born- Heber Cycle, Lattice energy, Imperfections in crystal-stoichiometric defects-Schottky, Frenkel, Non- stoichiometric defects-Colour Centre, F-Centre

UNIT II

ELECTRICAL PROPERTIES

9

Band theory of solids -metals and their properties; semiconductors – extrinsic and intrinsic, insulators – dielectric, ferroelectric, pyroelectric and piezoelectric properties, multiferroics. Superconductivity: Basics, discovery and high Tc materials.


UNIT III

MAGNETIC PROPERTIES

9

Dia, para, ferro, ferri, and antiferro magnetic types; soft and hard magnetic materials; select magnetic materials such as spinels, garnets and perovskites, hexaferrites and lanthanide-transition metal compounds; magneto resistance

UNIT IV

SYNTHETIC METHODS

9

Thin film-Electro chemical methods, PVD & CVD: Crystal growth-Thermal methods-Bridgman, Stockbarger and Zone refining, High temperature ceramic methods. Particle size reduction, precursor method. Sol-Gel, Co-precipitation, microwave assisted synthesis, combustion synthesis, High pressure methods for preparing single crystals-Czochralski, molecular beam epitaxy-Flame and plasma fusion methods, intercalated compounds.

UNIT V

SOLID CHARACTERIZATION TECHNIQUES

9

Powder x-ray diffraction, indexing the powder XRD patterns, Systematic absences, Structure factor, determination of lattice type, unit cell parameter and density for fcc, bcc and hcp metals, Thermal analysis: TGA, DTA, DSC

TOTAL : 45 PERIODS

COURSE OUTCOME: At the end of the course, the learners should be able to:
• Arrive at the chemical compositions based on unit cell contents and fractional coordinates.
