MSN 511 Surface Science and Spectroscopy

This course is designed to provide a general overview of surface science and surface spectroscopy techniques. Specifically, this course provides the basis for understanding various surface phenomena and properties using surface spectroscopy techniques. Students will learn fundamental working principles, capabilities, limitations, and recent advances in surface spectroscopy techniques including contact angle measurements, infrared spectroscopy, ellipsometry, surface X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), neutron reflectometry, high-resolution electron energy loss spectroscopy (HREELS), scanning tunnelling microscopy (STM), atomic force microscopy (AFM), and techniques for determining surface electronic structures. Students will be able to select appropriate surface spectroscopy techniques to characterize specific materials and interpret the resulting data. Credit units: 3 ECTS Credit units: 5.
