| Aim: The overall goal with the course is to provide the student a deeper knowledge and understanding of some modern physics measurement- and analysis-methods. The course should also develop and secure the students ability to:
|
|||
| Prerequisites: (valid for students admitted to programmes within which the course is offered) Modern Physics, Wave Motion and Thermodynamics and Statistical Mechanics, are desirable. 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. |
|||
| Supplementary courses: Physics of Condensed Matter, part 1, and Analytical Methods in Material Science |
|||
| Organisation: The course consists of a series of laboratory exercises and is introduced by a short series of lectures. The course runs over the entire autumn semester. |
|||
| Course contents: The introductory lectures treat subjects such as crystal structure and diffraction, radioactivity, the interaction of ionized radiation with matter and radiation detection. The series of laboratory exercises include primarily subjects from the courses Modern Physics, Wave Motion and Thermodynamics and Statistical Mechanics. It also contains subjects that are treated in the courses Quantum Mechanics and Physics of Condensed Matter. Examples of laboratory exercises included are: Holography, Emission-spectrometry, Zeeman-effect, X-Ray Spectroscopy, Laue-method, Heat pump and Stirling Engine, Vacuum-technology, Mass-Spectroscopy, Analysis of gamma-spectrum, Curie and Isding model, Fiber optics and Scanning Tunneling Microscopy. |
