The course's objectivs are: Learning several advenced methods in experimental physics, and critical reading of experimental papers.
The course deals with the concept of measuring in different domains, particularly in the electrical, optical, and microscale domains. The course will end with a perspective on quantum measurements, which could trigger the ultimate revolution in metrology.
The main objective of the course is to introduce the concept of space system design and engineering. The course will describe the various subsystems involved in the design of a satellite. It will also describe the techniques of systems engineering that are used to obtain a coherent satellite design.
The topics covered by the course are concepts of fluid mechanics, waves, and electromagnetism.
Introduction à la mécanique des fluides, à l'électromagnétisme et aux phénomènes ondulatoires
Comprendre les principes physiques utilisés dans les capteurs. Vue générale des différents principes de transduction et de l'électronique associée. Montrer des exemples d'application.
Ce cours d'introduction à la microscopie a pour but de donner un apperçu des différentes techniques d'analyse de la microstructure et de la composition des matériaux, en particulier celles liées aux microscopies électronique et optique. Le cours comprend des cours ainsi que des démonstrations.
L'optique est un vieux domaine qui touche à beaucoup de sujets modernes, des techniques expérimentales aux applications courantes. Ce premier cours traite plusieurs aspects de base de l'optique: propagation, dispersion, interférence, diffraction, polarisation, modulation, guidage, etc.
This course discusses the interaction between atoms and visible electro-magnetic radiation and introduces the main instrumentation for light detection and spectroscopy. The principles of LASER light sources are described, providing notions of nonlinear and ultrafast optics.
This course gives the basics for understanding nanotechnology from an engineer's perspective: physical background, materials aspects and scaling laws, fabrication and imaging of nanoscale devices.
