概述

In this course, we will go though the basic knowledge and skills to work with soft matter. The 1st part of the course is a series of introductory talks about the physical properties of soft matter and liquid crystals, including phase transitions, topology, electromagnetism, optics, fluid dynamics, how chemical composition changes the physical properties, amphiphile, and spontaneous self assembling micro structures. The 2nd part introduces the four typical liquid crystal operation modes, which are In-Plane-Switching (IPS), Vertically Aligned (VA), Electrically Controlled Birefringence (ECB), and Twisted Nematic (TN). We will analyze the cell structure, the materials, the assembly, the operation, and their characteristic properties. The 3rd part of the course introduces the natural and engineered soft matter optoelectronics, such as, displays, lens, laser, photonic crystals (optical transistors and pigments), electronic nose (gas sensors), electronic skins and tattoos (tactile sensor and lab on the skin), soft robots, topological soft matter (new phases of material), liquid crystal in plants, biomineralization, phase transition mediated tissue formation, and biomass electronic materials. 在本課程中,我們會介紹軟物質基本的物理與化學性質,還有如何操作軟物質。 課程的第一部分是軟物質物理和液晶物理,還有一點點化學,包含: 物質相變、拓樸學、電磁學、光學、流體力學、化學結構對物理性質的影響、親/疏水、自組裝微結構。 第二部分介紹四種典型的液晶(向列型物質)的操作模式,分別是水平操作模式(IPS)、垂直操作模式(VA)、電控雙折射模式(ECB)和扭轉操作模式(TN)。我們將分析元件的結構、材料、如何組裝、如何操作及其特性。 課程的第三部分介紹天然的和人造的軟物質光電材料/元件,例如顯示器、智慧眼鏡、雷射、光子晶體(光電子元件和染料)、電子鼻(氣體感測器)、電子皮膚電子紋身(觸覺感測器和測量皮膚分泌物的貼片)、軟膜褶紙機器人、拓撲軟物質(物質的特殊相態)、植物中的液晶、生物礦化機制(珍珠是怎麼長出來的)、相變引發組織成型、生質電子材料、生質布料。
