Course Content (Syllabus)
The aim is to theoretically and experimentally acquaint the students with specialized knowledge and skills related to microscopy, lasers, nano-testing and reverse engineering. A detailed presentation of the various microscopy techniques will be carried out, such as optical microscopy of transmitted and reflected light, fluorescence microscopy, confocal microscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM), lasers for characterisation, nano-tests such as nano-indentation and atomic force microscopy (AFM), as well as reverse engineering techniques for 3D geometry reproduction. Understanding their operating principles and using intelligent practices to obtain useful information about the materials-biomaterials, tissues and living organisms is a central objective of the course. In addition, the theory will be coupled with laboratory practice in the above techniques in order to acquire relevant practical experiences and skills in their use.
