Samlet oversigt over tid og sted for alle kurser inden for Lektionsplan for Det Naturvidenskabelige Fakultet Forår 2013 NAT |
| Undervisnings- periode: |
22. april til 23. juni, 2013. |
| Undervisnings- form: |
Lectures and exercises in groups. |
| Formål: |
The purpose of the course is to give an introduction to modern charactisation tools in surface and nano science. The tools include STM, AFM, electron microscopy, x-ray scattering based techniques plus a range of chemical analysis tools like X-ray photo-electron spectroscopy. The students will work in groups of about four people and choose their own set of samples which they will characterise with a subset of the techniques presented in the lectures. The students will learn about the applicabities of the techniques and learn how to use them in practise. |
| Indhold: |
In the course we will discuss some of the most important experimental tools for advanced structural characterisation in nano science.The tools could include:
(i) scattering methods based on x-rays and neutrons (small angle scattering, reflectometry, EXAFS, diffraction)
(ii) Scanning and transmission electron microscopy
(iii) Scanning probe methods including STM and AFM
(iv) chemical characterisation tools (XPS, contact angle, TOF-SIMS).
The course will give a thorough understanding of the physical basis of the techniques and of their strength and weaknesses. Local experts from other institutions and companies will be invited to give highlight examples and excursions will be arranged for demonstrations. A large part of the course is experimental, where the students will use the techniques on their own samples and learn about their applicability the hard way. The course is evaluated by a written report and a poster session.
The course will also include an excursion to a company or institution, which uses advanced characterisation tools in nano science.

| Målbeskrivelse: |
The goal of the course is to give the student knowledge about modern characterisations tools in surface and nano science. The student should know the basics of a range of techniques that will enable him/her to evaluate what kind of structural information a given technique can provide and what not. This could be information about atomic or crystalline structure, mesoscopic structure or chemical structure. The student will also be able to judge the applicability of the techniques concerning the form of the sample, whether it is single crystal, powder, flat or rough.
The student will be able to use the techniques in practice. The experimental part is very much student driven. The student be able to organise the lab work working in a team, keeping a logbook, arrange laboratory time and seeking information about the interpretation of results, etc.
Finally, the student must be able present the result in a written report and also to present it as a poster.
