課程介紹
    課程的目的是介紹熱力學之基本觀念,並強調熱力學在材料科學上之應用。重點在於探討熱力學定律、熱力平衡(含相變化、化學反應、固溶、表面)、統計熱力學與平衡缺陷等。
     The objective is to introduce the fundamental concepts of thermodynamics and its applications in material sciences. Efforts lie in the studies of laws of thermodynamics, thermodynamic equilibria, statistical thermodynamics, and equilibrium defects.
