Aim:
The main aim of this course is to provide an introduction to and general information about some successful research activities going on at our department within the material physics area. The topics to be covered represent research projects on materials, which are considered to have a great technological potential, but the projects are still in an "early strategic phase", with focus on, the manufacturing, characterization and development of the new materials.

Prerequisites: (valid for students admitted to programmes within which the course is offered)
Attended NFYD76 Material Science and NFYD78 Semiconductor Physics or corresponding courses
Note: Admission requirements for non-programme students usually also include admission requirements for the programme and threshhold requirements for progression within the programme, or corresponding.

Organisation:
The course will be given in seminar form, in which researchers will give lectures on their research activities. The course can be given wholly or partially in English.
|
|
Course contents:
Some examples of research areas to be presented
- Semiconductors with a large bandgap (nitrider, SiC, etc)
- Low dimensional structures (quantum wells, quantum wires, quantum boxes etc)
- Superlattice structures
- New compounds e.g. CN ("rubber diamond"), C60 (fullerenes) etc - oxides - Si/SiGe - Organic electronics.
|
|
Course literature:
Literature, mainly research reports, will be distributed at the seminars
|
|
Examination: |
|
There will be compulsory hand-in exercises and reports during the course. At the end of the course one specific research area should be deeper penetrated and the result should be distributed as a written report or as an oral presentation. (U,G,VG) |
