課程簡述 This course introduces undergraduate students to the fundamental concepts, materials, and processes of thin film technology, with an emphasis on physical understanding rather than advanced device engineering. The course bridges basic solid-state and semiconductor physics with practical thin-film fabrication techniques commonly used in microelectronics, optoelectronics, sensors, and energy devices. In addition to classroom lectures, the course includes hands-on exposure to sputtering and thin-film deposition systems, allowing students to connect theoretical concepts with real fabrication processes.
