| Course description |
| Both electron transfer and ion migration are important to maintain the life. This class aims to understand the characteristics of electron and ion, and to learn several examples concerned with electrons and their migration. Furthermore, learn about characteristics such as ionic liquids and ion conducting polymers as examples of ion conductive materials. It is important to understand academic development of electrochemistry and relationship between biological reactions and industrial applications of these materials. Deeply understand the life phenomena through this class. Additionally, students are trained to have both scientific aspect and industrial approach on the energy conversion. |
| Expected Learning |
|
Aims to understand the critical difference between electron and ion, through learning electron transfers and ion transfers seen in biological systems. Aims to understand physical chemistry to confer functions of electron transfer and ion conduction. To have a wide vision to apply the knowledge to propose several applications and design of materials. |

| Remarks 1 |
| Additionally, I will answer whenever possible. Email is always available. However, I will not give a reply to such silly questions as “tell me the answer” “which book can I find the answer”, because the important thing is the action "think" always by yourself. |
