120 credits in science/engineering. Participation in Quantum Materials I and Spectroscopy of Atoms and Molecules. Proficiency in English equivalent to the Swedish upper secondary course English 6.
The course gives a basic understanding of the central concepts in magnetism, the quantum mechanical interactions that underlie magnetic order and collective excitations in magnetic materials. The course elucidates on energy-related applications of magnetism like soft magnetic materials in transformers and generators as well as within nanosciences, e.g. magnetic memories and magnetic data storage.
