Summary

The course is intended to extend the knowledge of students in the field of structural characterization of advanced materials. The lectures deal with the most important experimental techniques, their physical principles, possibilities and limitations. The attention is paid to the correct interpretation of results and the modern techniques of specimens´ preparation. Methodology of the choice of the best suited techniques for obtaining the desired information is discussed. Some examples from both industry and the development of advanced materials are used to demonstrate the role of the structure characterization in solving materials engineering problems.
