Superconductivity and low-temperature physics

Education facts

Code: FIM670

The course contents are concentrated to a few sub-fields: 1. studies of superconductors, both an understanding of superconductivity starting from microscopic properties and of macroscopic quantum effects, particularly the Josephson effects; 2. properties of superfluid helium and Bose-Einstein condensates; 3. mesoscopic effects, for example single electronics 4. low temperature techniques, thermal properties of materials, thermometry etc.

Entry requirements

To be eligible an applicant must either be a holder of a Bachelor's degree in Science/Engineering/Architecture or be enrolled in his/her last year of studies leading to such a degree. A basic course in quantum mechanics and a basic course in solid state Physics/electronics.

Education offerings

Each offering has its own dates and conditions. Closed offerings are retained as history and do not mean that a new application is open.
