ATM – Nanoscale Distance Measurements in EPR and Fluorescence Spectroscopies (August 28-29, 2018)

Aims

This module was suitable for doctoral students in chemistry, physics, biophysics, and related fields. Some background in quantum mechanics was advisable but was not a direct prerequisite. It introduced the basic theoretical and technical concepts necessary for an understanding of electron paramagnetic resonance and fluorescence in general and especially emphasises the EPR and fluorescence methods for measuring distances on the nanometer scale.

Contents

Each day of the two-day program started with a series of lectures in the morning covering the theoretical knowledge by basic lectures and the discussion of applications and problems. It was followed by hands-on experiments on instructive examples during the afternoon.
