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-419: Solid state physics IIIThe aim of this course is to provide an introduction to the theory of a few remarkable phenomena of modern condensed matter physics ranging from the quantum Hall effects to superconductivity.
PHYS-510: Spintronics : basics and applicationsThe course introduces the concepts necessary to understand and describe the reading and writing process of a magnetic bit. Similarities and differences between a classical and a quantum bit are addres
PHYS-511: Electron spectroscopySeries of lectures covering the use of electron spectroscopy for the study of the electronic and atomic structure of surfaces, nanostructures, and quantum materials. Special attention is given to vari
