KFC/CMMV Practice in Methods of Material Research

Guarantors: Radek Zbořil, Libor Kvítek, Robert Prucek
Exercise: 5 hours/week
Credits: 4
Summer semester
Form of course completion: course credit

The practice will include the measurements of the selected samples, data processing and evaluation.

Practice:

• Size and morphological characterization of the nanoparticles via AFM method.
• Study of thermal decomposition of the selected iron salts via TG/DTA.
• Determination of the surface area of nanocrystalline and porous materials.
• Measurements and evaluation of the magnetic characteristics of the selected metal oxides.
• Measurements and evaluation of the Mössbauer spectra of the selected minerals and iron salts.
• Measurements of size distribution of colloidal Ag via DLS method.
• X-ray powder diffraction analysis used for the purpose of study of phase composition of the selected polycrystalline samples.
• IR spectroscopy used for characterization of some surface modified nanoparticles - data processing, evaluation.
• Raman spectroscopy used for characterization of some surface modified nanoparticles - data processing, evaluation.
• Study of nanocrystalline alloys via the MMF method.
