Basic information about nanostructures: classification, physical properties and their difference from the properties of macroscopic analogues, the reasons for the emergence of new properties when reducing the size of structures to the nanometer range and the physical nature of these objects stability. Fundamentals of ideas about the relationship between atomic structure and parameters of atomic interaction in one-, two- and three-dimensional nanostructures. Be able to calculate both the value of critical stress of instability of the atomic interaction and the magnitude of critical displacement of atoms in nanocrystal based on the values of parameters of the interatomic interaction potential. Be able to estimate the lifetime of nanoscale systems in a wide range of both temperatures and mechanical loads.

To know and be able to apply the methods of analysis of crystallographic structure.

The course "Selected topics of the nanosystem physics" considers modern ideas about the influence of atomic structure and electronic structure of nanosized crystals and clusters on their stability and lifetime. Here, the main emphasis is on the physical nature of the influence of dimensionality and size of nanocrystals on their properties. The purpose of studying the discipline is to give students the basics of modern knowledge about atomic mechanisms that govern the stability and lifetime of three-dimensional nanoscale crystals, two- and one-dimensional nanoclusters. The educational task of the course is to form students' basic ideas about the relationship between the atomic structure of three-dimensional nanoscale crystals, two- and one-dimensional nanoclusters and their stability and strength.
