Aims
  • The student is familiar with state of the art spectroscopic tools (application areas, specifications, radiation sources and external parameters like pressure, temperature and magnetic fields)
  • The student understands their possibilities, limitations and fields of application
  • The student knows which experimental tools to use to address a specific research problem
Content
In this course students will become familiar with state-of-the-art spectroscopic techniques to study the properties of molecules, molecular aggregates and materials. In particular, the spectroscopic tools within the Nijmegen Centre for Advanced Spectroscopy will be in the focus of this lecture series, including a variety of laser spectroscopic methods, Nuclear Magnetic Resonance, Spectroscopy in High Magnetic Fields, Nano/Single Molecule Spectroscopy combined with scanning probe microscopy methods.
