Written reports on laboratory practical (70%) and oral presentation with subsequent discussion (30%)

Laboratory practical in tandems
A presentation or a written report graded as failed can be repeated once.
If „Advanced Characterization Tools I“ is chosen, then „Advanced Characterization Tools II“ has to be chosen as well.
The module can also be chosen as an elective module in „individual specialization“, if not already compled as „required specialization“.

Will be recommended at the beginning of the module.

Seminar (1 SWS), laboratory practical (4 SWS)
(SWS stands for‚ hours per week per semester)

This module focuses on advanced characterization techniques for the investigation of morphology, size/size distribution or composition of nanostructured materials. Methods introduced to the students will include electron microscopy, i.e. transmission (TEM), scanning (SEM), and cryogenic transmission (cryo-TEM), scattering techniques (light or X-Ray, small and wide angle), powder diffraction, X-Ray spectroscopy etc.

At the end of the module, students are acquainted with advanced characterization methods of nanostructured materials, and are able to apply them and their combinations to state-of-the-art questions in this research field. Additionally, students learn how to solve problems in small groups, to present and defend their solutions in front of a larger audience.

Regular participation in seminars and laboratory course during the semester
