From Maglev to MRI: Fundamentals of Magnetism and Magnetic Materials AS.030.308 (01)
This course will introduce students to the atomic origins of magnetism in real materials, with an emphasis on applications across a wide variety of fields. Beginning with a review of the quantum mechanical and chemical considerations that drive magnetic order, we will then explore how existing theoretical models can be used to describe unusual and often useful forms of magnetism. The latter half of the course will focus on the ways in which magnetic materials are commonly synthesized and characterized, and their importance in various electronic and medical applications. Finally, we will discuss recent advancements in the field, as well as the promise of such materials in the development of novel technologies.

Remsen Hall 140
Optoelectronic Materials and Devices: Synthesis, Spectroscopy, and Applications AS.030.403 (01)
This course provides an introduction to the vast chemistry and physics of solid-state materials. The course begins with a fundamental description of bonding in crystalline solids and calculation of electronic band structure. We then extend our discussion to methods for the synthesis of low-dimensional materials and hierarchical structures, including quantum dots (0D), nanowires (1D), graphene and graphene analogs (2D), and thin-film superlattices. An in-depth discussion of spectroscopic and characterization techniques for solid-state materials will follow and focus on some of the foundational studies of quantum devices and cooperative phenomena. At this stage we will describe
recent advances in electron-microscopy (e.g. aberration-corrected and energy filtered TEM, atom-probe tomography) that are revolutionizing the structural, compositional, and electronic characterization of materials. The course will conclude with a survey of contemporary topics in solid-state and nanomaterials science, including functional devices and circuits, assembly, energy conversion and catalysis, and biological sensing.
Recommended Course Background: AS.030.301 and AS.030.402 are preferred, but instructor approval may be granted in lieu of these courses.

Introduction to Computational Chemistry AS.030.405 (01)
This course provides an introduction to the state-of-the-art computational chemistry.The course integrates the basics about molecular electronic structure theories and the corresponding computational aspects and practice in chemical applications. The discussions of theories cover the modern quantum-chemical methods, ranging from mean-field methods (Hartree-Fock method and density-functional theory) to post mean-field methods for treating electron-correlation effects (configuration interaction and coupled cluster). Demonstrative calculations and computer lab practice are designed to deal with the computation of energetic properties (e.g., heat of formation,
bond dissociation energy, reaction activation energy, etc) and structural properties (geometry, vibrational frequencies, etc) of representative molecular systems using standard quantum chemistry program package (the Gaussian program, most probably). The class will conclude with a report and presentation on a piece of recent computational work pertinent to the student’s research interests.

Honors Organic Chemistry II AS.030.212 (01)
Second semester undergraduate organic chemistry from a more advanced prospective, emphasizing connections to modern examples from biochemistry (protein and DNA structure, chemical logic of metabolism, enzyme mechanisms), catalysis, materials (polymer synthesis, supramolecular chemistry), medicine (drug structure and function) and more. The standard topics of second semester organic chemistry (e.g. reactivity of aromatic and carbonyl-containing molecules) will all be covered, but amplified and enriched with topics as noted. Students may not simultaneously enroll in AS.030.212 and AS.030.206. Prereq: Must receive a B+ or better in the first semester (AS.030.205)

Exploring Protein Biophysics using Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) Spectroscopy AS.250.310 (01)
NMR is a spectroscopic technique which provides unique, atomic level insights into the inner workings of biomolecules in aqueous solution and solid state. A wide variety of biophysical properties can be studied by solution state NMR, such as the three dimensional structures of biological macromolecules, their dynamical properties in solution, interactions with other molecules and their physical and chemical properties which modulate structure-function relationships (such electrostatics and redox chemistry). NMR exploits the exquisite sensitivity of magnetic properties of atomic nuclei to their local electronic (and therefore, chemical) environment. As a result, biophysical properties can be studied at atomic resolution, and the global properties of a molecule can be deconstructed in terms of detailed, atomic level information. In addition, interactions between nuclei can be exploited to enhance the information content of NMR spectra via multidimensional (2D and 3D) spectroscopy. Since these properties can be studied in solution, NMR methods serve as an effective complement to X-Ray crystallography and electron microscopy. In this course, we will learn about the basics of NMR spectroscopy, acquire 1D and 2D NMR spectra and use various NMR experiments to characterize and probe biophysical properties of proteins at an atomic level.
