Please subscribe as well in 5.04.6611 Advanced Optical Spectroscopy in order to get all necessary information. Both seminar are usually offered parallel.

• Demonstrate knowledge, fundamental understanding and critical awareness of current research fields in state-of-the-art optical microscopy.
• Personal development through practice of communication, presentation, time management, teamwork, problem solving, project management, critical evaluation, numeracy, and IT skills.
• Students are able to prepare a written scientific report on their own and present their results in an appropriate way to the group; in particular to understand, analyze, classify and work on an advanced microscopy topic, thoroughly study the recommended (and further) literature; find and critically check relevant literature make and incorporate their own thoughts, write down and present their results in a mathematically correct and comprehensible way, finish in time.

Topics to be covered will include: microscopy, wave optics, optical imaging, spatial/temporal coherence, light generation/detection, e.g.:

• Confocal microscopy
• Superresolution microscopy
• Single Molecule Imaging
• Imaging of living tissue
• Raman microscopy
• Stochastic microscopy
