| Description:
| Aims: * To show a range of advanced spectroscopy techniques used in a wide range of current research and develop understanding of the use and application of such equipment. * To develop fundamental ideas in spectroscopic experimental design. Learning Outcomes: After this unit students will be able to: * Describe a range of current spectroscopic techniques and understand experimental data derived from spectroscopic experiments * Propose suitable methodologies for undertaking spectroscopic experiments * Compare techniques and bring together results from different experiments. * Solve problems using the methods introduced including the application of techniques to unseen situations * Critically review literature examples of experiments utilizing advanced spectroscopic techniques * Critically analyse scientific data to suggest improved experimental design. Skills: Problem solving (T, F, A), Scientific writing (F, A), Independent working (F). Content: * Raman spectroscopy and derivatives including surface enhancement and resonance; * Fluorescence spectroscopies including excitation, FRET, anisotropy and lifetime measurements; * Ultrafast spectroscopic techniques; * Transient spectroscopies, measurement of excited states; * Dichroism spectroscopies relevance to biological molecules. |
