Course objectives
The course offers laboratory exercises on advanced experimental techniques in solid state physics with the emphasis on semiconductors.

Based on the students own experience, the goal of this course is to provide the students with the ability to
- list and describe the selected experimental techniques in condensed matter physics
- apply these methods to measurements of particular phenomena
- analyse and physically interpret the measured data.
