一、課程說明(Course Desc<x>ription)
<br>Learning ob<x>jective: The ob<x>jectives of this course are to introduce ceramic 
<br>materials for energy storage applications through supercapacitors, batteries, 
<br>and fuel cells to students. This course will be helpful to students to 
<br>understand the concepts of energy storage. The course would also teach students 
<br>essential techniques and technology of batteries/supercapacitors/fuel cells 
<br>through understanding the underlying kinetics and thermodynamics of electrode 
<br>processes.
<br>
<br>Content: This course introduces a wide range of energy storage technology in the 
<br>following areas: Types of energy storage; basic electrochemical principles in 
<br>supercapacitors/batteries/ fuel cells; Ceramic materials used for energy 
<br>storage; Factors affecting energy storage performance; Applications of 
<br>supercapacitors/batteries/fuel cells. 
<br>Students will visit a battery factory or a research center. They will learn how 
<br>to fabricate simple batteries devices and how to handle basic instruments to 
<br>analyze the device performance. Students will work in groups, prepare a report 
<br>(in a journal paper st<x>yle), and present an oral presentation regarding a 
<br>potential ceramic material for energy storage applications.
<br>
<br>Learning Outcome:
<br>On completion of this course, the students will be able to:
<br>●	Understand the basic principles of electrochemical energy storage 
<br>devices
<br>●	Understand the factors affecting electrochemical energy storage devices 
<br>performance.
<br>●	Understand the principles, operation, and prospects of rechargeable 
<br>battery technology.
