  • PHYS 3050: Spectroscopy of Solids and Atoms

    3.00 Credits
    Tulane University of Louisiana

    Prof. Ederer. Pre-requisite: PHYS 1310, 1320, 235, 236, or consent of instructor. This course deals with the interaction of photons with matter. Topics will include some of the ideas of quantum electrodynamics that form the basic underpinning of all forms of electromagnetic interactions with matter. Absorption, reflection, and scattering of radiation in the spectral region extending from the infrared to the x-ray region of the spectrum will be described and will include experimental methods used to study gases and condensed matter materials. Emphasis will be given to photoionization, autoionization, Raman, Compton, Bragg, and Rayleigh scattering, and how these phenomena are used to study the electronic properties of matter. Sources, including lasers and synchrotron radiation, and instrumentation for their use will be discussed.

  • PHYS 3600: Nanoscience and Technology

    3.00 Credits
    Tulane University of Louisiana

    Prof. Diebold. Pre-requisite: PHYS 2350. Nanoscience and technology is often branded the science of the 21st century. It has been promised that nanotechnology will have similar stimulating effects on the world’s economy and society as the industrial-and microelectronics- revolution. Nanoscience is an interdisciplinary effort with the aim to manipulate and control matter at length scales down to single molecules and atoms and thus to create materials and devices with novel properties. With diminishing dimensions material properties are being governed by quantum mechanics. The description and exploitation of quantum phenomena in novel devices is the quintessence of nanophysics. Consequently, the main emphasis of this course is to give an overview of the physics of low dimensional solid state systems. This course is supplementary to courses in solid state physics and surface science but can be taken independently. (Same as ENGP 3600.)
