Abstract
The goal of the subject is to master advanced experimental techniques. Majority of tasks is measured using up-to-date research equipment. This imposes higher demands on students, but brings better orientation in current experimental methods.
Learning outcomes
Student will get experiences with number of experimental techniques and with processing of experimental data.
Key topics
  • RTG
  • SEM + EDX
  • XPS
  • optical methods in characterisation of materials
  • mechanical characteristics of thin films
  • contact angle measurement
  • semiconductor manufacturing
Study resources and literature
  • HUTCHINSON, I. H. Principles of plasma diagnostics. 2nd ed. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 2002, xvii, 440. ISBN 0521803896. info
Approaches, practices, and methods used in teaching
Experimental work (measurement). Each measurement is introduced by a lecture.
Method of verifying learning outcomes and course completion requirements
lab exercises are finished when measurement reports are presented and defended, the subject is closed with a defence of the protocols.
Language of instruction
Czech
