The Department has state-of-the-art fabrication and characterization facilities for a wide range of research areas related to materials science and engineering. The faculty members of the Department carry out both fundamental and applied research under the four major targeted areas, namely, Computational materials science, Functional materials, Structural materials and Materials characterization techniques.
1. Computational materials science includes materials modelling based on DFT and MD, as well as structural materials modelling.
2. Functional materials, key elements include materials physics, nanomaterials, organic light-emitting diode, photovoltaic materials, magnetic materials and spintronics, energy materials, plasma science and processing, sensing and detection, optical spectroscopy, as well as photonics and optoelectronics materials.
3. Structural Materials section encompasses phase transformations, SMT solder joints, creep and life assessment, in-service behaviour of materials, stress analysis, structural materials design, surface science and engineering, thin films and coatings, metals and alloys, plastics and composites, shape memory alloys, and electrical ceramics.
4. Materials characterization techniques cover advanced scanning/transmission electron microscope, thermal and mechanical testing, X-ray single-crystal diffractometer, 3D atom probe tomography, and multifunctional optical imaging/spectroscopy.
In addition, members of the Department have collaborations around the world and are well-recognized in their research expertise. The ultimate goal of the department is to prepare graduates with professional knowledge, exploring spirit and leadership skills for the future world.
