"Experimental Techniques in Condensed Matter Physics"
Techniques for characterization, study and testing of condensed matter systems under a range of conditions including low temperature and high magnetic field will be presented. The course will cover the principles underlying these techniques and methods for implementing them. We will discuss methods for characterizing the experimental environment and for measuring condensed systems, paying particular attention to low-noise measurements. Sample characterization and basic microscopy techniques will be surveyed.
