FSK3887 - Characterization Techniques in Materials Physics using Neutron and Synchrotron Radiation

A 7.5 credits PhD level course on the application of neutron and synchrotron radiation for materials characterization will be given in the winter 2021-2022.

The investments made at MAX IV, Petra III, and the European spallation source (ESS) Sweden has realized new opportunities for Swedish researchers within materials characterization. This PhD level course will provide a description of the sources and how they are best employed. Invited subject experts will introduce powerful characterization techniques and exemplify with science cases. The beam time application processes will be covered in exercises with relevant feed-back.

Course content:
High brilliance and intensity sources, X-ray diffraction and scattering, neutron diffraction and scattering, X-ray absorption, X-ray emission, Photoelectron Spectroscopy, Imaging techniques.
