The laboratory work will be carried out in one-week blocks at times agreed on during the kick-off meeting.

Information

Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung

The aim of this lab course is to give students concrete hands-on experience in modern research in (experimental) solid state physics.

The students will be divided into groups of two, and each group will select two different research topics.

The topics will cover a wide range of methods ranging from studies of superconductivity and magnetism to atomic resolution transmission electron microscopy and optical spectroscopy. Both experimental as well as computational projects can be offered.

Exercise topics offered in 2022S are:
- X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy of organic molecules deposited on metal
- Applied Raman Spectroscopy, Triple Monochromator
- Röntgenkleinwinkelstreuung/Small Angle X-Ray Scattering (SAXS)
- Characterization of nanomaterials in electron microscopes (Nion Ultra STEM and FEI Titan)

Art der Leistungskontrolle und erlaubte Hilfsmittel

Course will be graded based on the participation in the practical exercises and the protocols describing each experiment.

The students will also need to prepare a short presentation of the exercise topic before each exercise to demonstrate that they understand the necessary physical principles behind the used methods.

Mindestanforderungen und Beurteilungsmaßstab

Both students of a group have to be present and have to contribute to the execution of the experiments. On the basis of the protocol it must be clearly visible that the basic physical principles of the experiment were understood. The experimental data must be analyzed and interpreted correctly.

The protocol must be handed in within two weeks from the end of the practical exercise, unless otherwise agreed with the instructors.

Prüfungsstoff

The protocol must provide a clear motivation for the work, briefly summarize the current state-of-the-art based on provided literature, describe the experiments and analysis of the results, and a discussion reflecting on the results and issues encountered during the practical work.

Literatur

Necessary literature will be provided during the course.
