Objectives
General objective - The course aims to provide theoretical and practical knowledge in various fields of experimental physics applied to sustainability. In particular, skills will be provided: for the realization of thin films and nanomaterials/nanostructured materials, also in the realization of devices; for morphological, structural and physical/chemical characterization; for geometric definition by photolithography; for electrical characterization and at cryogenic temperatures; for electrochemical characterizations; for the recovery of materials; for the exploration of quantum phenomena in superconducting materials, with advanced applications in innovative devices. Particular attention is paid to the development and characterization of single photon detectors based on superconducting materials, devices that exploit the extreme sensitivity of quantum transitions.
