      Course Objectives The aim of this course is to introduce modern characterization techniques used to analyze the physical, chemical, mechanical, and thermal properties of engineering materials. The course aims to teach students the fundamental principles of various characterization methods, analysis processes, and interpretation of results. Through this, students will gain proficiency in understanding material properties and selecting the appropriate characterization techniques.
      Learning Outcomes The students who succeeded in this course;
      Name Description PC Sub * Contribution Level
      1 2 3 4 5
      LO1 explain the fundamental analytical techniques used for the characterization of the physical and chemical properties of materials X
      LO2 interpret X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis results X
      LO3 analyze electron microscope images X
      LO4 describe the working principle and application steps of Atomic Force Microscopy X
      LO5 interpret the chemical composition of a material using FTIR analysis results X
      LO6 evaluate the optical properties of materials using the basic principles of UV-Vis spectroscopy and the obtained spectra X
      LO7 assess the thermal behavior of materials using thermal analysis techniques X
      LO8 analyze the light-emission properties of materials through the working principles and measurement results of fluorescence spectrometry X
      Course Description This course covers the basic characterization techniques used in determining the microstructural, chemical, mechanical and thermal properties of engineering materials. The working principles, application steps and data interpretation processes of analysis techniques such as X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM), Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM), Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), Raman Spectroscopy and thermal analysis methods (DSC, TGA) will be covered. Students will learn how these analysis methods are used in different materials and will gain the ability to evaluate characterization data.
