Teaching Division:

Physical Chemistry

Educational and
professional goals:

Knowledge of physical methods applied in physicochemical investigations of solid samples and in surface science.

Course description:

The lecture covers principles of modern physical methods applied to determine the structure and properties of new materials and composition of the surface species. The following spectroscopic and microscopic techniques are presented:

     - Raman spectroscopy (ordinary and resonance effects, surface enhanced
       Raman scattering, confocal Raman microscopy);
     - Reflection techniques in infrared spectroscopy (ATR, IRRAS)
     - Solid state NMR
     - Surface plasmon resonance (SPR)
     - Photoelectron spectroscopies (and related) (ESCA-XPS)
     - Low-energy electron diffraction (LEED)
     - Secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS)
     - Ion Scattering Spectroscopy (ISS)
     - Electron microscopy (scanning, tunneling and atomic force microscopy,
       SEM, STM, AFM)
     - Scanning Near Field Microscopy (SNOM).

Required background:

Completed basic course in molecular spectroscopy.
