?Optical Methods

Optical methods are used very widely in solid-state physics research for the preparation, characterization and investigation of the properties of various materials and systems due to their versatility and availability. Methods range from direct imaging, to scattering and spectroscopy. In this seminar series we will explore examples of this in a range of solid state systems.

The current list of topics is available at:  https://www.klaeui-lab.physik.uni-mainz.de/master-seminar-ss20/

Recommended reading list:
Will be determined with the supervisor of the presentation.
