General information - physics lab course solid state physics for Master
- Within the first two weeks of the lecture period in SS (time to be announced), an introduction to the organization of the lab-courses will be given. A short introduction to the lab-course rules, organization and all the the research lab experiments (Lxx) will be given. One of these lab experiments can be chosen by each group.
- The experiments take place during the term (exception are the experiments in the lab at the FZ Jülich, see below) and are usually scheduled on a Wednesday.
Depending on the number of participants, some dates might be during the semester break.
- The experiments in Aachen are conducted in groups of two to three students.
- All participants conduct an experiment in a research lab of the 1st or 2nd Institute of Physics of the RWTH Aachen (Lxx), to get an insight into the work during a master or PhD thesis and to get to know current topics in solid state physics. You can choose your preferred experiment in the moodle room from 12.04.2023 until 19.04.2023 (click here) just after the intorduction of the lab-course.
- Depending on the number of participants you will perform 0-2 days of experiment in a lab at the Forschungszentrum Jülich. These experiments are done in groups of two or three in the week 11.03.2024 – 15.03.2024. You will attend a full day lecture on 11.03.2024 and conduct your experiments in the following days. The lecture will give you an introduction to the experiments and a general overview of research topics in nano electronic in the Forschungszentrum Jülich. The experiments will be assigned at the end of February. Instructions can be found here: http://www.fz-juelich.de/pgi/lcn/
The talks on Monday (11.03.2024 9:00) take place in Building 02.4w E1. room Nr. 309b. If possible, a bus will be organized picking you up in Aachen and bringing you to to Jülich directly. Information on this service will be provided via email to registered participants in time. On the other days, the bus line SB20 can be used to reach the Research Center.
For entering the Forschungszentrum you need your ID card or a passport.
The meeting point for the experiments on Tuesday - Friday is at 9:00h in Building 02.4w E1 room 309b. The room is on the first floor.
- The experiment report has to be send to the tutor via e-mail within two weeks. Only in exceptional cases and prior agreement with the tutor and extension of the two week deadline is possible.
- The experiments start at 9:00h (for exceptions see the instructions)
- Cheating or fraud, e.g. tuning data or copying text (even partial) for reports, will result in the immediate disqualification of the lab course without advance warning.
- During the research lab experiments Lxx photography is forbidden and hence no digital cameras nor mobile phones are allowed to be carried inside of the laboratories.
