- Assignment 1 (due Mon. Sep 15): Problems 2.1, 2.2, 2.3, 3.2, 3.3, 3.4, 3.8
- Reading: Drosg, Chapter 2,3,4
- Reading: Barnes, Chapter 1 and 2, Chapter 3
- Assignment 2
- Reading: Chapter 6, Ashcroft and Mermin
- Reading on xrays
- Assignment 3
- Xray - Appendix on Lattice Geometries
- Assignment 4 (due Wed. Oct. 15)
- Reading on neutron scattering
- You will be required to submit a conceptual question on the reading (so not 'what is a triple-axis spectrometer'). Make sure you have covered the following terms in your reading: isotope labelling, coherent, incoherent scattering, spallation source, small-angle neutron scattering, three-axis neutron spectrometer . Due date for the question: Mon, October 20 at 5pm
- Compressed Gases Notes
- Reading - Regulators
- Assignment 5 (due Wed. Oct. 29)
- Scattering intensity data courtesy of Prof. Otto Glatter
- NMR Lectures by Prof. James Keeler
- Reading: Read Chapter 2 (atleast till the end of 2.5), Chapter 3 (atleast till the end of 3.6) and Chapter 4 (atleast till the end of 4.3).
- Assignment 6, due Friday, Nov 21.
- NMR Data (fid; if it looks like a spectrum contact me immediately!) of: Ahmad, Hanieh, Lance, Martin, Mahboob, Ramesh-A, Ramesh-B, Nasir, Suliman
- Your NMR FIDS should look like this (but probably dont)! Ahmad, Hanieh, Lance, Martin, Mahboob, Ramesh-B, Nasir, Suliman. If they do not, use this FID, retrieved from Ahmad's data; the 2 columns are time (sec) and signal (arb. units).
- Reading: Signal processing
- Introduction to Optical Microscopy Techniques
- Introduction to Scanning Probe Microscopy (Kris Poduska Guest Lectures)
- Neutron Scattering Questions
