Course detail
Nanotechnology
FEKT-MPC-NANAcad. year: 2024/2025
The course focuses on modern aspects of Nanotechnology - its prinicples and applications. The stress is put on the understanding of fundamental nanostructures and various interaction in the near-field (force, optical, electric, magnetic, thermal,and others). Application of nanotechnology: Chemical and material synthesis. Design and fabrication of nanostructures (force, optical, electric, magnetic, thermal,and others). Second part of topic is oriented to computer nanotechnology, detection and localization of nanostructures. Students actively prepare and present topics related to aplication potential of nanotechnology (nanoelectronics, metamaterials, nanophotonics) in modern world.

Aims
The student is able to:
- define and explain novel physical (electric, optical, magnetic) phenomena on nanoscale
- describe selected nanostructures - fullerens, nanotubes, nanocmposites
- simulate the interaction in the case of STM, AFM, SNOM
- detect and localize nanostructures
- discuss the advantages and disadvantages of nanomaterials
on the basis of define considerations to prepare a presentation of choosen topic
- actively present and define own presentation (in the framework of other activities part)
- prepare and present a poster on chosen topic.
