Photochemistry |
ASC 14 | 5 Credits | ASC 1 to 10 | This course deals with selected aspects and tools of modern photochemistry in solution and solid state. Combination of lectures with carefully selected practical exercises should give students good basic understanding of photochemical processes, their mechanisms and usefulness of photomaterials... |
| X-ray diffraction studies of biologically important molecules | ASC 15 | 5 Credits | ASC 1 to 5 | X-ray diffraction studies of single crystals as a tool for structure determination of biologically important molecules is described: Crystallization of small molecules and proteins: evaporation, diffusion, dialysis, preparation of crystals for diffraction experiments... |
Metabolomics |
ASC 16 | 5 Credits | ASC 1 to 5 | The course combines theoretical and practical aspects of metabolomics, which analyzes the low-weight molecules (metabolomes) that represent substrats, products. |
| Neutron Scattering Spectroscopy | ASC 17 | 5 Credits | ASC 1 to 5 | The course presents short description of theoretical background and chosen applications of the four main methods based on four different processes of neutron scattering by the molecular systems: 1) elastic coherent neutron scattering, 2) inelastic coherent neutron scattering, 3) elastic (or quasielastic) incoherent neutron scattering and 4) inelastic incoherent neutron scattering... |
| Functional Inorganic Materials | ASC 18 | 5 Credits | ASC 1 to 10 | Current techniques used for the characterisation of solids are described: The scope of this unit includes classification, structure elucidation and spectroscopic characterization of inorganic materials such as zeolites and their analogs, mesoporous silica-based materials, intercalated smectites, porous heterostructures, micro and mesoporous oxides, nanostructurated semiconducting oxides and sulfides... |
