ELT-29106 PhD Seminar on Applied Electronics, 5 cr
|
Description:
Doctoral Seminar in Nano- and Quantum Electronics (Fall Semester 2014) The course material will be related to but not strictly limited to quantum dot cellular automata (QCA), both electronically and phtonically addressed, and will target students from chemistry, physics and electronics. The course will involve a 2 hour seminar once a week for 2 periods or alternatively selected intensive seminar days. There will be a few introductory lectures given by the responsible professor and other senior staff, along with assigned reading from the scientific literature (quantum phenomena and energy levels in semiconductor quantum dots, basics of time resolved photophysics, architectures and addressing schemes for QCAs). For the rest of the course, the students will be expected to prepare presentations of ca 45 minutes on special topics chosen from a list or proposed by the student and agreed with the responsible person, and also act as “opponent” on at least one presentation from another student (i.e. also read up on the topic and ask questions during the presentation). There should be a written report submitted to accompany the presentation(s) that the student gives. The course is mainly aimed at doctoral students in electronics/electrical engineering, chemistry and physics (materials science also by agreement) but masters students can be admitted by agreement.
