    This course is an introduction for Master's students to Materials Characterization. It is mandatory for all Functional Materials(FM) major students. The maximum amount of students on the course is limited and the FM major students have priority. Note that the course registration will close before the course starts and all accepted students will get a confirmation.

    Syllabus: In this course, the first day of the week one lecture dedicated to the theoretical part will be delivered and this will be followed by experimental sessions for the rest four days of the week. Following are the topics

    1. X-ray diffraction (XRD)

    2. Transmission Electron Microscopy TEM

    3.  Four probe resistivity and Hall measurement (Semiconductor)

    4. Optical Microscopy

    5. Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM)

    6. Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS)

    7. Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM)

    8. Raman Spectroscopy

    9. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS)

    Welcome

    For any questions contact:

    The course has contact sessions where analysis methods and data analysis is discussed with equipment experts. You need to prepare for the contact session by self-study the topic beforehand.

    The course has 5 laboratory practices that at least 4 must be attended to pass the course. Each laboratory practice will be run for only one week (due to instrument booking) and students participate only in one group (2h) during that week. The groups will be booked with the course starts and you do not need to be in the same group for each laboratory.
