Goal(s)
The aim of this course is to give an overview of structural, microstructural and chemical characterisation techniques in materials science.
The different kinds of radiation-matter intercations as well as experimental aspects are first developped. The main techniques of analysis are then detailed and illustrated by examples for the different materials classes.
