Investigation of defect structures in metal oxides via spectroscopic techniques

Here mainly the size effects and metal ion doping effects will be investigated on ZnO semiconductor nanomaterials. In addition; 
In this project students will learn and practice:

• how to handle chemicals in lab
• how to use spectroscopic techniques such as magnetic resonance spectroscopy, Photoluminescence, Raman  and UV-Vis spectroscopy
• how to correlate spectroscopic results with other techniques such as x-ray diffraction and impedance spectroscopy
• how to interprete the spectre and convert spectral information to physical and chemical information
• how to write a report on experimental results
