About this Unit
The unit will introduce students to the underpinning theory, practice and application of a range of advanced analytical techniques used in science and technology. These will include neutron and X ray scattering/reflectometry, vibrational spectroscopy, multidimensional NMR, confocal microscopy, GC MS, multidimensional chromatography and associated modelling methods. Students will explore the strengths and weaknesses of the various methods, and develop expertise in building complementary suites of techniques for addressing real world problems in science and technology.
