Nano-Science

Nano-science, 1 of the subject I am taking in this trimester. Super duber difficult subject. Really couldn't understand what Prof Lim was actually teaching during the class.

First of all, I shall introduce my lecturer to you all.
Lim Swee Cheng, Prof. (Mr.)
  • Position : Professor
  • Education : B.Sc.(Hons), Ph.D.
  • Nationality: Malaysian
  • Research Interests:
      Mathematical Physics,Quantum Field Theories,
      Genome Sequence Analysis,
      Applications of Fractional Calculus to Various Physical Problems.
  • Topics:
      Applications of Fractional Calculus and Probabilistic & Stochastic
      Method in Physics, Teletraffic

      Genome Sequence Analysis
      Financial Time series,

      Fractional Quantum Field Theory,
      DNA/Genome Sequence Analysis Using Stochastic Methods.
Guys, though he is old, he is a PhD holder from Oxford University. Yes, the Oxford University in UK, not those cha pa lang "Oxfod" or "Oford" or "Oxord" Furthermore, he is one of the PhD holder in Physics. PhD in physics is getting lesser and lesser nowadays not even to mention about PhD from Oxford University.

Next, come back to my course. This subject is basically pure physics. OMG, PHYSICS again. Everything is about physics, physics and physics. For more information about the syllabus of this course, if you guys are really so interested with it, please kindly copy the link below and paste it on your net browser.

Okay, quiz on next Monday (7th July 2008) and I am still blogging here. Steady huh! hehe. I am just too fed up about looking at those notes and equations which I don't even know how to solve it. Geram betul.

Okay, let's talk about Prof Lim again. He is indeed a nice lecturer actually. But sometimes he just like to say something that makes us feel... You gonna judge him by yourself after reading the following... (I copy and paste from Ezrin's blog)

“This question is straight forward, very easy,”

“You should know all these things already,

“The Hamiltonian Operator and the Eigen Value should be at your fingertips already,”

“Schrödinger Equation is very important in this subject,”

And the kicker,

“What is so hard? You tell me which part of mathematics is hard,” while pointing at all the derivations he wrote on the whiteboard which contains only “A”, “B”, “Chi”, “Psi”, “X”, “Epsilon”, and all those symbols with only one number that is “2” because one of the formula have “2m*” in it.

“If this tutorial you cannot do, then the test will be so much harder. Then how do you do it then?”

What do you think guys if the lecturer saying all this with a "haha, hehe, hoho" His brain is filled up with tones of knowledge, equations and theories. He is good in writing on the white board, but when he comes to explaining those equations, I think he should practice more. But I wouldn't expect him to explain the whole Schrödinger Equation in this course. It's because this thing is too complicated and too long. Try to google online about Schrödinger Equation and you will know how complicated is this thing. But thanks to Mr Erwin Rudolf Josef Alexander Schrödinger. It is because he make our life better and indirectly make my life suffer. LOL

Okay, it's so much I can complaint in this entry because I really got to continue with my studies now otherwise I gonna spend my 1 hour tomorrow in class sitting doing nothing. I am now so-confused-look. TATA~
