Molecular thermodynamics

0105102-147

[DEFINITION]
A dynamics which explains thermal phenomena with the behavior of atoms and molecules.

[DESCRIPTION]
Molecular thermodynamics is the basic study of motion of atoms and molecules, which clarifies relation of the motion with heat and flow, and how consequently energy is transferred by condensation, vaporization, absorption or radiation of light. Application of molecular thermodynamics is expected in various fields such as the new materials development, super fine precision processing, and thermal control technology.
