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.
LEARNING OUTCOMES
After the course, students will be able to independently operate following microscopes: Transmission electron microscope TEM, scanning electron microscope SEM and Atomic force microscope AFM. They also learn to do electron tomography imaging and high resolution TEM imaging and elemental analyses.
