Prerequisites and co-requisites
The educational discipline "Nanophysics and nanotechnology" is based on the cycle of disciplines of professional and practical bachelor's training, namely: "Electricity and magnetism", "Optics", "Atomic physics", "Quantum mechanics", "Physics of condensed matter", "Physics of solids ".
Prerequisites:
The student must know: the basic laws, equations and relations of the course of general physics, the course of physics of condensed matter, the course of quantum mechanics.
The student should be able to: build physical models of condensed matter and your body both based on the ideas of classical physics and according to quantum mechanical ideas, distinguish between primary and secondary interactions that can be neglected.
The student should know: basic approaches to conducting physical experiments and measurements of physical quantities, the basic principles of implementing fundamental knowledge into practical technologies.
Course content
The study of the discipline "Nanophysics and nanotechnology" allows you to master the basic physical principles governing the properties of samples of condensed matter, the dimensions of which are in the nanometer range. The objects of study are nanoclusters, nanocrystallites, nanosized films, nanoporous materials, methods of their creation and research. The main varieties of nanolithography are considered, with the help of which it is possible to create appropriate nano-sized objects within the limits of an established technological process. As an alternative way of creating nanostructures and nanosized devices, self-assembly processes in films grown on the surface of a certain substrate are being studied. Considerable attention is paid to the self-imposed quantum confinement electronic states, and the effect it has on the properties of specific nanoelectronic devices, as well as on the electronic properties of samples of matter of the appropriate size, in particular, in low-dimensional (1-dimensional, 2-dimensional) systems. The peculiarities of the flow of electric current through such objects and the consideration of these peculiarities for the creation of new ones are considered varieties of nano-sized transistors and other promising electronic devices and systems.
