CH-314: Structural analysisThe aim of this course is to treat three of the major techniques for structural characterization of molecules used in chemistry and chemical engineering: mass spectrometry, NMR, and X-ray techniques.
MSE-450: Electron microscopy: advanced methodsWith this course, the student will learn advanced methods in transmission electron microscopy, especially what is the electron optical setup involved in the acquisition, and how to interpret the data.
ME-469: Nano-scale heat transferIn this course we study heat transfer (and energy conversion) from a microscopic perspective. First we focus on understanding why classical laws (i.e. Fourier Law) are what they are and what are their
PHYS-415: Particle physics IPresentation of particle properties, their symmetries and interactions.
Introduction to quantum electrodynamics and to the Feynman rules.
PHYS-407: Frontiers in nanosciencesThe students understand the relevant experimental and theoretical concepts of nanoscale science. The course covers basic concepts like quantum size effects and their characterization techniques, and h
MICRO-530: NanotechnologyThis 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.
MSE-238: Structure of materialsIntroduction to materials structure including crystallography, the structure of amorphous materials such as glasses, polymers and biomaterials as well as the basics of characterization techniques.
