Descriptif
In Advanced Lab III, students have the opportunity to apply the physics knowledge they have acquired over the course of 6 lab sessions of 4 hours each. In PHY_3F003_EP, the students will discover a more autonomous style of experimentation. The lab sessions will be centered on modern physics and are expected to address the following subjects: quantum physics (scanning tunneling microscope, superconducting quantum interference device), condensed matter physics (X ray diffraction and crystallography), modern optics (lasers) as well as solid and fluid mechanics (mechanics of deformable bodies).
Objectifs pédagogiques
Upon completion of this course, students will have acquired advanced experimental skills allowing them to set up, carry out and to critically analyze experiments in physics.
