About

About the course

Course content

The subject gives an introduction to methods used in characterization of solids in modern research. The methods which will be addressed are: Temperature programmed techniques, electron- and ion spectroscopy, x-ray diffraction, x-ray absorption spectroscopy, electron microscopy and vibrational spectrocopy (FTIR and Raman)

Learning outcome

The students should be able to account for the relevant chemical and physical principles of a selection of techniques used for characterization of solids in modern research. The students should also be able to explain the possibillities and limitations of these techniques.

Learning methods and activities

4 hours of lectures and 2 hours of problem solving pr. week. Written examination (4 hours). For extraordinary or re-sit examinations, written examination may be changed to oral examination.
