Learning objectives

The objective of this course is providing the basic concepts of radiation-matter interaction and optical properties of materials in relation to their chemical and physical properties, focusing in particular on photoluminescent materials and their characterization.

Prerequisites and basic notions

No specific prerequisites are required, other than basic knowledge of the chemistry/physics of materials.

Program

The course will be done during the first semester, around November 2024.
The course will be organized in the following main areas:
- light-matter interaction
- optical properties of nanosystems
- tools and techniques for optical characterization
- photoluminescence in organic and inorganic materials
- specific examples of materials and applications

Bibliography

Didactic methods

During the course, the open dialogue with students will ensure that all follow and understand the lessons.
The contents will be presented using a Power Point presentation prepared by the teacher and given to the students so that they can follow the lessons.
It will be possible to visit the lab to see instruments and materials related to the course.

Learning assessment procedures

There is no exam.

Students with disabilities or specific learning disorders (SLD), who intend to request the adaptation of the exam, must follow the instructions given HERE

Assessment
