Annotation -
Currently the rapidly developing fields of nanotechnology have high requirements for theoretical knowledge applicable in the fields of electronics or quantum mechanics, but also on methods by which you can analyze nanostructures. The course objective is to familiarize students with the analysis of the surface nanostructures, their chemical composition and other physico-chemical parameters. Students will learn the optical, utilizing electron beam, ion spectroscopic and thermodynamic methods. It also includes an introduction of probe microscopy techniques with the determination of nanostructures with dimensions ca 1 nm.

Requirements to the exam -

Subject matter is regularly repeated and discussed with students at lectures. This ensures the continuous control level of students' knowledge and clarity of lectures. The assessment of knowledge level and grading requires successful completion of a written test at the end of the semester.
