Bachelor Thesis
Bachelor-Arbeit
The bachelor's thesis is the culmination of the program. The students develop, enhance, and demonstrate their methodological abilities to independently tackle and solve a given research problem. The thesis furnishes the students with their first major research experience, and is a further development of the work done in the basis courses, and usually, the focused study.
The class gives an overview of fundamental concepts in nanoscale engineering. Mobility of small objects, interacting forces, surface tensions and wetting phenomena are some of the physical phenomena investigated. These will be applied to the description of formation and growth of nanoparticles and thin films as well as nanofabrication technologies.
Introduction to theory and practical application of measuring techniques suitable for the nano domain.
Measuring on the Nanometer Scale
Messen im Nanobereich
Conventional methods for studying nanostructures with light and electron beams. Interferometry and non-optical techniques to measure distances. Optical traps (tweezers). Foundations and techniques of scanning probe microscopy: tunneling, atomic force, optical near-field. Interactions between probe and specimen in the nanometer range.
Mechatronic Seminar
Mechatronik Seminar
Interdepartmental (D-MAVT, D-ITET, D-PHYS) seminar series on Mechatronics and Microsystems, focusing on a new specific scope (field of research) each semester.Speakers from industry and research with an excellent international reputation in their field are invited for presentation and discussion.For a detailed program, please refer towww.mechatronics.ethz.ch
The course is directed at students in their final semesters and PhD students with interdisciplinary curiosity, who would like to acquire in-depth knowledge about microscopes and devices applied in the promising field of nanotechnology. All exercises are done in groups of three and under intensive tutoring using state of the art research instruments. Limited to 10 students.
From atoms to molecules to condensed matter: characteristic properties of simple nanosystems and how they evolve when moving towards complex ensembles.Intermolecular forces, their macroscopic manifestations, and ways to control such interactions.Self-assembly and directed assembly of 2D and 3D structures.Special emphasis on the emerging field of molecular electronic devices.
In-depth theoretical and practical course on light microscopy for studying life processes on the tissue, cellular, and molecular scale. An explicit objective of this course is to bring together students from engineering and biology and to train them in transdisciplinary information exchange.
Lecture; students are introduced to quantum mechanics for phenomena on the nanoscale. Motivated by the limits of classical physics, they will learn the basic mathematical tools and concepts in order to describe quantum phenomena. As application, practical examples in electronics, optics and mechanics are studied which can only be understood using quantum physics.
Practical application of scanning probe microscopy techniques in the field of nanoscale and molecular electronics. Limited access.
The students are familiar with the challenges of the fascinating and interdisciplinary field of Micro- and Nanosystems. They are introduced to the basics of independent non-experimental scientific research and are able to summarize and to present the results efficiently.
