Back to the M.E. Mackay webpage

 

I teach a course entitled Nanoscale Characterization where the student learns the basics of:

 

Optical Microscopy

Scanning Electron Microscopy

Transmission Electron Microscopy

Dynamic Light Scattering

Static Light Scattering

Small Angle Neutron Scattering

Small Angle X-Ray Scattering

Atomic Force Microscopy

 

The course notes are comprehensive and are almost 200 pages in length. The student should have a bachelor’s degree in science and/or engineering. At the end of the course the student will be able to grasp the fundamentals of these techniques and begin doing experiments with help from others or by herself or himself.

 

This is a two day course and can be taught at your facility. Read feedback from the course recently taught (careful the comments are unedited….) and view some pictures taken during the course. Picture 1   Picture 2
