Please note! Course description is confirmed for two academic years (1.8.2018-31.7.2020), which means that in general, e.g. Learning outcomes, assessment methods and key content stays unchanged. However, via course syllabus, it is possible to specify or change the course execution in each realization of the course, such as how the contact sessions are organized, assessment methods weighted or materials used.

CONTENT, ASSESSMENT AND WORKLOAD
Content
Valid 01.08.2020-31.07.2022:
The course gives basic knowledge of the microscopy of materials nanoscale structures - including soft and hard materials. Lectures will concentrate on transmission electron microscopy (TEM), cryo-electron microscopy, high resolution imaging, electron diffraction and analytical microscopy by using elemental analyses (EDX, EELS). Additionally scanning electron microscopy (SEM), atomic force microscopy (AFM) and methods to prepare samples are lectures.
