Methods of Material Characterization

Summary

Aim of the subject is introduction of chosen methods for measurements of various physical parameters. We will focus our attention mainly to diffraction (X-ray diffraction), microscopic (transmission and electron microscopy, scanning probe microscopy), magneto-optical, magnetic, (vibrating sample magnetometry), and nuclear spectroscopic (Mossbauer spectroscopy) techniques.
