KD2410 Imaging Tools of Chemistry 6.0 credits

The course includes independent project work that can be chosen to be either experimental or theoretical in character.

After the completed course the student must be able to;

• identify and explain the basic physical phenomena and mathematical principles that underlie different imaging methods such as AFM, MRI, confocal microscopy and electron microscopy.
• identify, classify, and analyse the mathematical methods such as Fourier and Radon transformation that are used for producing and analysing images.
• explain and calculate how the basic principles define the performance such as sensitivity and resolution of selected methods.
• describe and exemplify the applications of selected methods in chemistry and chemical engineering.
• identify and explain the choice of imaging methods most suitable for selected chemical problems.
• perform selected imaging experiments.

If the course is discontinued, students may request to be examined during the following two academic years.

• PRO1 - Project, 1.5 credits, grading scale: P, F
• TEN1 - Examination, 4.5 credits, grading scale: A, B, C, D, E, FX, F

Based on recommendation from KTH’s coordinator for disabilities, the examiner will decide how to adapt an examination for students with documented disability.

The examiner may apply another examination format when re-examining individual students.
