Physics

Courses

General physics : mechanics (IN II)

Give the student the basic notions that will allow him or her to have a better understanding of physical phenomena, such as the mechanic of point masses. Acquire the capacity to analyse quantitatively the consequences of these effects with appropriate theoretical tools.

Frontiers in nanosciences

The students understand the relevant experimental and theoretical concepts of nanoscale science. The course covers basic concepts like quantum size effects and their characterization techniques, and hot fields like nanoscale magnetism and spintronics for data storage applications, and 2D materials.

Spintronics : basics and applications

The course introduces the concepts necessary to understand and describe the reading and writing process of a magnetic bit. Similarities and differences between a classical and a quantum bit are addressed.
