Course Contents
The first part of the lecture covers scattering and spectroscopic methods for structural characterization like Small Angle Xray Scattering, Xray Absorption Spectroscopy, Nuclear Magnetic Resonance and others.
In the second part, spectroscopic methods for elemental analysis are treated e.g. UV-Vis photometry, atomic absorption spectrometry, X- ray fluorescence analysis, neutron activation analysis, secondary ion mass spectrometry, particle induced X-ray emission, Rutherford backscattering spectroscopy, and elastic recoil detection analysis.
