Course Description

The Advanced Techniques (CHEM.5160-001) class is a face-to-face lecture course covering a variety of instrumental methods frequently used by chemists and engineers to characterize materials, measure bulk composition or determine low level components in a wide range of samples. Topics or techniques to be covered are somewhat analytical in nature, but are often used by physical, inorganic and organic chemists as well as polymer and materials scientists. These include X-ray fluorescence (XRF), X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), atomic force microscopy (AFM), inductively coupled plasma - mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) and several more. Nearly all of the instrumentation to be discussed currently exists on campus and demonstrations will be conducted for some of the methods. The course is open to both graduate students and advanced level undergraduates in chemistry.
