Course content
- Electromagnetic radiation (spectrum, radiation of black body). - Physics of microcosmos (corpuscular-wave dualism, quantum theory). - Maxwell equations (calculus of vector fields; gradient, flow of the vector field, circulation of vector field). - Dielectrics(complex permittivity,vector of polarisation). - Inner structure of dielectrics (molecular dipoles, electron polarisation, polar molecules, permittivity of liquids). - Dielectric spectroscopy (relaxation, basic principle, aproximation with models (Debye, Cole-Cole, Cole-Davidson, Havriliak-Negami)). - Magnetism (magnetic field, diamagnetism, paramagnetism). - Static and dynamic magnetic properties of materials (magnetisation curve, magnetic anisotrophy(crystallic, elastic, shape)), magnetic materials (soft, hard, powder, ferrites). - Nanomagnetic materials (superparamagnetism). - Ferromagnetism (criteria of origin, domain structure, spontaneous magnetisation). - Composite magnetic/dielectric materials (percolation theory, critical loading, local field, effective values (permittivity, mag. permeability), models (Lichtenekker, Musal, Maxwell-Wagner). - Conductive polymers (electric conductivity, band theory, PANI). - Electrorheological and magnetorheological systems (rheology, structure formation, yield stress, effect of polarisation). - Electromagnetic compatibility (shielding, absorption of electromagnetic radiation).
