68320 Nanofabrication and Nanocharacterization Techniques
6cp; 6hpwRequisite(s): ((68413 Quantum Physics AND 68206 Optics) OR 68606 Solid-state Science and Quantum Devices )
Description
This subject addresses the high-precision techniques required for characterising and fabricating nano-materials and devices, which are core enablers of nanotechnology and materials physics. Students learn about nano-scale fabrication techniques, such as chemical vapour deposition, reactive ion etching, electron beam lithography, and focused ion beam microscopy. Students also learn about nano-resolution imaging and analysis such as electron microscopy, scanning tunnelling microscopy, and advanced fluorescence microscopy. They explore the application of these techniques in various scientific and technological fields, stay abreast of recent advancements, and gain hands-on experience with a range of imaging, analysis and nanofabrication methods.
