Assignment to Modules

Further Information

Courses are together with exams the building blocks for modules. Please keep in mind that information on the contents, learning outcomes and, especially examination conditions are given on the module level only – see section "Assignment to Modules" above.

additional remarks The module consists of a lecture and accompanying exercises. The lecture deals with the fundamentals of nanomechanical systems. These include the fabrication of freely suspended nanostructures, their vibrational behavior in the linear and nonlinear response regime, actuation and detection mechanisms, damping and Q-factor. Both the classical and quantum mechanical regimes of nanomechanics are covered. Modern applications in sensing or quantum technologies are also discussed.
