Learning outcomes
The objective of this course is to familiarize the student with
physical-chemistry measurement techniques and instrumentations
applied to the characterization of conventional and innovative
materials. The approach is from both theoretical and experimental
points of view. The acquired knowledge of these subjects will allow
the assessment of the possible choices of materials that are
suitable for the applications or functionalities for which a
product has to be designed.
Course contents
- Principles of material's characterization
- Principles and methods of optical spectroscopy
- References to the quantum-mechanical treatment of
matter/electromagnetic-waves interaction
- Molecular vibrations
- Electronic states, phosphorescence, fluorescence
- Photoacoustic spectroscopy
- Raman spectroscopy
- The Fourier transform
- Principles of NMR spectroscopy

Experimental practice in laboratory.
Assessment methods
The final examination is oral. It will be focused on a probable set of questions concerning the theoretical and practical knowledge of the student about principles and technologies presented along the classes. Moreover there will be the evaluation of a report presented by the student on a topic, among those faced experimentally.
