Diamond vs Graphite (Donald Sadoway, MIT)

[MrSniperscope]

i want to eat that chalk...

[EnviroNika]

I wish we have more teachers like that :))

[MOARKRABS100]

diamond is the strongest natural material however carbon could be formed into carbon nanotubes the strongest synthetic material and strongest material know to man

[PanzarMetal]

SWEET, soon we will have perfect diamond glass for optics.

I use a SLR so yeah a piece of perfect glass wont hurt (to have, not to hit some one)))

[nandhuonline]

wow,he explains really superb,i want to go to tution in his house....!! i am in 12th professor.u helped me a lot.thanks....!! :)

[boyofwax]

Wow this is good!

[bulletproof2353]

so what will replace silicone for semiconducters going forward?what is the better choice,price aside .does the discovery of graphine mean that diamond semiconductor research will be obsolete?what is better for packing the most transistors on a cpu?which can make a cpu that can operate at highest tempature?

[BoatNectar]

diamond pubic crystal structure...diamond pubic

[FUBARyouBITCH]

@ hamsterpoop... thanks for posting the videos "love them" iam like a junkie in a crack house!!!!! that Prof.Sadoway really loves what he's doing and for that i thank him and you hamsterpoop for posting them.. again thank you...

[jl929]

Great, I love his lecture, combination of knowledge and humor!

[Archimedes555453525]

This was honestly my favorite chemistry lesson

[janitarjanitar]

this guy fuckin rocks

[nomilkforsanta]

Haha, he's acting like he put some meth in his coffee. All of my chem professors talked as if they lived in a retirement home...

[1987aliomer]

extremely informative and excellently defined.

[nekorinki]

Where on earth is he teaching? We were taught these things at the first course of chemistry in our high school (Finland, Arts high school) and this looks suspiciously like a university or college.

[janitarjanitar]

@nekorinki apparently finnish high schools spend too much time on chemistry, and not enough on reading.  This is from MIT, one of the most famous engineering schools in the world

[nekorinki]

@janitarjanitar ...we read too? Apparently our high schools just have more advanced chemistry. It's the same everywhere on our country, the first five courses hold the same contents. Glad I live here.

[hamsterpoop]

@nekorinki

Maybe you were given a qualitative introduction to orbitals, but in his class, Prof. Sadoway derives everything, which implies a necessary background in basic classical mechanics and electromagnetics. He also develops a bit of quantum theory. Look at the rest of the videos in this course (link in description) if you really want to learn how all this actually works.

[dadagujarati]

most of the things hes saying,,ul get it after u do chemical bonding and atomic structure of the AS level

[DeathJustice]

He wrote "absoption" at 4:52 :PP Great lecture by a great professor; God what wouldn't I give to be accepted at MIT.

[thierryvt]

it is lol.

[machazem]

Close your eyes and listen....

Sounds like al pacing right?

[ZComwiz]

His handwriting alone is making my mouth water. Those "C"'s are so delicious. So Smooth with the pure chalk white on that contrasting black background.

[Halibut118]

very good. i also couldn't help but notice how neat and fast he could type!

[isura123]

very helpful!!

[galaxymilkyway]

I'm doing IGCSE Chemistry which is like nowhere to what he is teaching, but i can actually understand most of the things he's saying! he's a good professor!

[ilovebannu]

@galaxymilkyway

i feel for you

[dlhitch2007]

Great stuff. Refreshed my memory on hybrid orbitals and gave me some laughs in <7 minutes.

[Valiton93]

mani luv u for this

[ryanmilne8000]

i want this prof

[BRADAGA]

he is a great profesor ......

[gusarajo]

Good teacher xD

[imfreakingoutman]

holy fuck dude that looks prety complex...hes got like 12 chalk boards...college is no walk in the park
