The main objective of the proposed course is that students master the knowledge in the field of science and technology at the nano level. They will be trained to characterize biomolecules, biomaterials and nanomaterials that are used in medicine and dentistry by STM / AFM / MFM. The doctoral students will be able to do experiments by NanoProb device in order to complete their doctoral work.

The student will be trained to prepare a sample, to choose a method for the characterization of nano samples, to explore the characteristics of the sample, using NanoProb device, as well as to process obtained and write a report.

Physically oriented nanotechnology and their application in medicine and dentistry. Chemically oriented nanotechnology and their application in medicine and dentistry. The principle of operation of NanoProb devices, modules STM / AFM / MFM. A sample preparation. The NanoProbe device procedure. The recorded results saving and the processing of results.

A sample preparation: solid, powder and biological samples. The sample surface selecting. The determination of the STM probe and cantilevers for AFM / MFM. A Practical work on Nanoprobe device: module STM, AFM module, the module MFM. The Analysis and interpretation of results.

To be enrolled in doctoral studies.

1. A Nanoprobe device (JEOL, Japan) 2. A CVD (a device for making surface-based thin-film) 3. Devices for making tablets of powder material 4. A fluid cells for electrochemical research within the NanoProb device
