Prerequisites
Basic knowledge of vacuum technique, gas kinetics, principles of chemical reactions, surface processes (adsorption, desorption, difussion), plasma processes and interaction of ions with materials. It is advantageous to pass the course F4280 Thin Films Deposition and Surface Modification Technologies.
Course Enrolment Limitations
The course is also offered to the students of the fields other than those the course is directly associated with.
fields of study / plans the course is directly associated with
Course objectives
At the end of the course students should be able to explain different approaches in nano/microtechnologies and understand their basic principles and requirements.
Syllabus
  • Nanotechnology - Definition and Examples
  • Repetition of Knowledge Base for Micro-/Nanotechnologies (gas kinetics, principles of chemical reactions, surface processes, plasma processes and interaction of ions with materials)
  • Basic Microfabrication Techniques (lithography, thin film deposition and doping, etching and substrate removal, substrate bonding)
  • MEMS Fabrication Techniques (bulk micromachining, surface micromachining, high-aspect-ratio micromachining)
  • Nanofabrication Techniques (e-beam nanofabrication, epitaxy and strain engineering, scanning probe techniques, self-assembly and template manufacturing)
  • Lessons from Nature - Biomimetics (multifunctional plant surfaces and smart materials, lotus effect: surfaces with roughness-induced superhydrophobicity, self-cleaning and low adhesion, biologically inspired attachment systems, gecko feet)
