Module

Voraussetzungen

Inhalte

The following topics serve as examples to illustrate the connection between basic and applied sciences and to demonstrate the methods of attaining new perceptions: • internal stress and x-ray diffractometry, • elastic waves and elastic properties, • deformation analysis in the micro and nano regime, • Scanning probe microscopy, • focused ion beam, • nanoindenters, • thermography and thermal investigation of electrical micro-devices, • Laser techniques, • simulations for reliability testing, • compound materials

Lernziele

After successfully completing the module, students have caught a good grasp of experimental methods for the characterization of micro- and nanomaterials. They are able to familiarize themselves with a technical topic independently. Additionally, students have continually improved presentation skills and further competences as accurateness, endurance and curiosity.

Prüfungsleistung

• Written examination, 120 min. OR With small number of participants it is also possible to organize the assessment mode as: • Oral examination, 30-45 min. OR • Presentation, 30-45 min. In the first lecture it will be announced, if the examination will be offered as written exam, oral exam or presentation.

Bemerkungen
