Cursusdoelen
After successfully completing this course:
  • to investigate and summarize a modern research topic involving scanning probe microscopy and condensed matter physics
  • to identify and analyse relevant scientific literature in condensed matter physics
  • to identify and interpret results which utilize scanning probe microscopy
  • to explain the scientific and instrumentational working principles of scanning probe microscopy
  • to differentiate between various scanning probe methods
Inhoud
This course is an introduction to:
  • Scanning Tunneling Microscopy/Spectroscopy
  • Atomic Force Microscopy/Spectroscopy
  • Application of these methods at cryogenic temperatures
  • Comprehending scientific literature related to SPM research
  • Scientific presentation and writing
Scanning probe microscopes are widely used in nanoscience, which is an interdisciplinary domain of physics, chemistry and biology. A scanning probe microscope (SPM) can visualize atoms, molecules, molecular orbitals, and nano-scale structures on solid surfaces and perform local spectroscopy. This course is recommended to master students who are interested in modern research topics specifically in condensed matter physics, and the application of SPM toward these fields of research. The course will emphasis topics in condensed matter physics and high precision and cutting-edge methods.
