Physique à l’echelle nanométrique

3 ECTS Credits — Semester 2 — Elective

Exploring the effects of dimensionality on the electronic, optical, and transport properties (classical/quantum) of nanometric materials and structures.

Syllabus

  • Relevant orders of magnitude
  • Some basics on the fabrication of nanometric objects
  • Methods for investigating nanometric objects: spectroscopies (Raman, optical, etc.),
    microscopies (electron, near-field)
  • Light-matter interaction
  • Transport

Prerequisites

Wave physics, quantum physics, quantum statistical physics, condensed matter (bands, semiconductor, metal, Drude model).
