Entry knowledge
Requirements on previous knowledge is: physics basics (mechanics, electricity, magnetism and basics of quantum theory) and mathematics (differential, integral and matrix calculus, statistics) as provided during BSc studies. Further, the knowledge on solid matter physics and crystallography is required (crystal systems/lattices, reciprocal space, kinematic and dynamic diffraction theory, pole figure, basic stereographic triangle).
Rules for evaluation and completion of the course
The subject is concluded by an exam. The exam consists of mandatory written part and may be extended by oral one. The course-unit credit is granted under condition of elaboration of the assignments based on the practical lessons' topics.Attendance at practical lessons is compulsory. Absence from classes is dealt with individually, usually by make-up exercises.
Aims
The course objective is to offer the students an overview and also the theoretical knowledge on principles of all basic methods of analysis of structure and phase composition of materials, including necessary sample preparation techniques. Based on practical demonstrations, the students will gain basic overview of procedures and methods used to solve problems and analysing results.
After concluding the course, the student should be able to select appropriate analytical techniqe to solve practical problems in materials' engineering.
