Goal(s)
This lecture is an introduction to the different types of materials and their properties. The role of the crystalline structure, of the chemical bonding and the cohesion of solids is presented in relationships with the properties of materials. Some examples of devices taking into account solids are used to show how a given application can determine the selection of a particular material versus its properties. Elastic, electric and thermal properties are studied. The importance of defects is given especially for ionic conductivity of solids. This lecture includes some basis notions on phase diagrams and phases transformations.
