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.
At the end of the course the students will be able to recognize and explain many natural and artificial optical phenomena such as the absorption and emission properties of luminescent molecules, quantum dots, metallic nanoparticles, nano-and micro-phosphors.
They will also have acquired a good knowledge of the main components of optical measurement instruments and their various characteristics: sources (filament lamps, discharge lamps, fluorescent, LED, LASER), wavelength selection systems (diffraction gratings, prisms), detectors (thermopiles, photodiodes, photomultiplier tubes, CCD).
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 second semester 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 with examples
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.
A few samples of luminescent materials and LED sources for demonstration purposes will be shown.
Learning assessment procedures
There is no exam.
Assessment
Not expected.
Criteria for the composition of the final grade
Not expected.
