      The goalIntroduction to the synthetic methods for obtaining specific electroceramic materials in micro-, nano- or monocrystalline form as well as to appropriate characterization techniques. Acquiring basic knowledge about selected functional properties and their relating to the structure of oxides. Basics of solid oxide fuel cells.
      The outcomeThe student will be able to conduct the synthesis of electroceramic materials of the desired properties by selecting the synthetic procedure and starting components.
