- Nanotechnology (master)
- Electrical Engineering (bachelor)
bachelor advanced technology
Optics
Course code: 202000662
The XUV group contributes to the Master level by teaching the following course for students who choose the optics track in physics. In wave optics, we cover many different aspects of the propagation of light: how pulses of light can be spread or compressed in time by materials; how lenses don’t focus light to a point and how to calculate just how good a lens will be; how particles scatter light, and how optical fibers shape the spatial and temporal properties of light as they guide it.

Surfaces and Thin Layers
Course code: 193550020
Together with the PIN group, the XUV group contributes to the Master level course “Surfaces and Thin Layers” which is part of the Materials Physics track (course code 193550020). This course covers preparation of well-defined surfaces for surface science studies, as well as analysis of surface structure, electronic properties and composition. The specific contributions of the XUV group are currently: vacuum and sample preparation, scanning probe microscopy, ion scattering and adsorption/desorption.
Master Nanotechnology
Nanomaterials Research: fundamentals, synthesis and application
Course code: 201900042
Introduce students into performing research on nanomaterials with respect to its fundamentals, synthesis and applications. The topic of the course is synthesis of nanomaterials using advanced deposition techniques. The first part of the course (the PBLs) is on the general fundamentals of nanomaterials, covering commonly used advanced deposition methods for nanomaterials. This will serve as a basis for understanding top-down deposition of nanomaterials, with a focus on its synthesis for research applications. In the second part, students will perform a full research cycle, i.e. a trajectory consisting of a background study, formulation of a hypothesis, experimental design (fabrication), analysis (verification) and reporting.
Because of the link to specific active research, the topic of this second part is flexible. It links to active research projects within research groups, coupled to the course by the involved teachers. An example of such research topic is an optical component that involves large area freestanding transparent thin films, called pellicles, a research topic within the XUV optics group for which synthesis is performed mainly in the Nanolab cleanroom. In this manner, the course offers a fundamental understanding together with a full research cycle linking to scientific interests in addition to potential industry relevancy.
