(*)Upon completing the course, students will possess the following skills. They are able to
- describe and explain the fundamental concepts and methods of microscopy (k2/k3);
- explain and discuss basic concepts of material characterization using different probes (k2/k3);
- explain probe-sample interactions and the information that can be obtained with different techniques (k2/k3);
- describe, explain and analyze the instrumentation and spatial resolution of optical, X-ray and electron microscopy (k2/k3/k4);
- describe and explain the optical elements and their properties used in microscopy (k2/k3).
