The students understand the relevant experimental and theoretical concepts of nanoscale science. The course covers basic concepts like quantum size effects and their characterization techniques, and h
Sample preparation and direct observation techniques (optical microscopy, AFM, electron microscopy) and their practical application to the study of morphology and microdeformation in polymers.
Theoretical and practical expertise is gained about the microscopy of spin structures and magnetic configuiations down to the sub-nm
length and sub-ns time scales such as transmission electron microsc
Modern Scanning Electron Microscopes, when combined with focused ion beams (Dual beam FIBs), provide a larger number
of multimodal imaging and different analytical methods. The course format consists
