Responsible coordinator of the module PH1414 is Martin Stutzmann.

Content, Learning Outcome and Preconditions

Content

Seminar talks by students on current topics in the field of research. In particular, Bachelor and Master students of the chair should have an opprtunity to present their own research results in front of a larger and diverse audience.

Learning Outcome

After successful participation in the module the student can use the basic methods of literature retrieval, condense their knowlegde from scientific papers into a presentation and obtain presentation skills.

They have learned about recent topics in the field of research.

Preconditions

Basics of quantum mechanics and semiconductor physics/nanotechnology.
