Subject aims expressed by acquired skills and competences
Aim of the subject is introducing 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.
