FEEG6008 2029-30
Advanced Photovoltaics, Fuel Cells and Batteries
Electrochemical technologies are transforming the way we generate, store and use energy. From high-efficiency solar cells and hydrogen production to batteries, supercapacitors and fuel cells, these technologies are central to the future of sustainable energy and electrification. This module develops a deeper understanding of the scientific principles that underpin modern electrochemical energy systems and their engineering applications.
You will explore the operation of advanced photovoltaic devices alongside the electrochemical processes that govern fuel cells, electrolysers, batteries and energy storage systems. Through the study of charge transport, reaction kinetics, electrochemistry and advanced materials, you will develop the analytical skills needed to understand how these technologies function and how their performance can be improved. The module also considers the practical challenges of designing efficient, reliable and cost-effective energy systems for real-world applications.
By the end of the module, you will have developed a comprehensive understanding of advanced electrochemical and photovoltaic technologies, equipping you to evaluate emerging energy solutions and contribute to the development of future sustainable energy systems. -

CHEM3039 2027-28
Advanced Physical Chemistry
The course deals with the nature of surfaces, both real and ideal, the energetics of adsorption at surfaces and adsorption isotherms, and the charge distribution at the liquid/solid interface. The kinetics of reactions at interfaces, including the role of mass transport and applied potential on the overall kinetics are discussed. The role of microscopic structure of the interface in determining the rates of heterogeneous catalysts is discussed along with spectroscopic and scanning probe techniques for the characterisation of gas/solid and liquid/solid interfaces on the molecular scale. Examples of applications to fuel cells, energy storage and conversion and heterogeneous catalysis are discussed in detail. -

CHEM3048 2027-28
Advanced Practical Chemistry
This module represents an advanced practical course designed to build on the practical skills developed through lab modules undertaken in years 1 and 2 of the Chemistry degree programmes. The course will extend this vital skill by enabling students to undertake a series of advanced/open ended experiments. Each experiment is designed to demonstrate different research areas and allow students to develop the skills necessary to conduct an independent investigation. -
