Lernergebnisse
Kompetenzen
(*)Students will learn the working principles of Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM). They are able to carry out Atomic Force Microscopy measurements in contact and intermittent contact modes and get trained to use a commercial AFM. They are familiar with the safety-related principles in the laboratory and are able to implement them. They gain experience in making extremely precise measurements and in improving data quality by optimizing environmental and instrument parameters. Various measurements will give them a preview of the many possible applications of the technology for polymer materials.
Fertigkeiten Kenntnisse
(*)After completion of the course the student should have the knowledge and ability to • describe the components of the atomic force microscopy (AFM) and the basic working principles. (k2) • explain and differentiate between the various AFM operation modes (k3) • prepare samples suitable for AFM experiments from solution and from the melt. (k3, k6) • perform AFM experiments on polymer surfaces (k3, k6) • process and discuss the results obtained by AFM. (k3) • document their results appropriately, e.g. record experimental data in tabular form and create various visualisations. (k3, k4) • critically interpret AFM data both own and in literature with relation to polymer based materials. (k5) • evaluate the basic safety aspects of AFM experiments. (k5) (*)This course is designed to provide the background, basic concepts and practical knowledge of atomic force microscopy (AFM) in the context of polymer-based materials. It will provide knowledge of • the operating principles and components of atomic force microscopy (AFM) • what information and results can be obtained with AFM in relation to polymer-based materials • how AFM can be used in applied research and/or industrial settings • knowledge to recognize common artefacts, analyze AFM measurements, interpret the results in terms of surface interactions • preparation techniques of polymer surfaces for AFM measurements • how to plan AFM experiments relevant to your own research
