Nanostructures II

Advanced Nanophysics (SuSe)

Lecturer: Prof.Dr. Johann Peter Reithmaier

Content of the lectures

The lectures consist of 3 SWh. The lectures are suitable for students from 8. or later semester of "Nanostructure Science Course" (required subject) and from 6. or later semester of "Physics Diploma" (elective course). Basic knowledge of Experimental Physics, Solid State Physics and Quantum mechanics are required.

 

The second part of the lectures (SS) continues the lectures form WS and discuss multiple examples the applications of nanostructures in different aspects

The next themen will be discussed:
