PHYS-433: Semiconductor physics and light-matter interactionLectures on the fundamental aspects of semiconductor physics and the main properties of the p-n junction that is at the heart of devices like LEDs & laser diodes. The last part deals with light-matter interaction phenomena in bulk semiconductors such as ab ...
MSE-352: Introduction to microscopy + Laboratory workCe cours d'introduction à la microscopie a pour but de donner un apperçu des différentes techniques d'analyse de la microstructure et de la composition des matériaux, en particulier celles liées aux microscopies électronique et optique. Le cours comprend d ...
ENG-612: Power electronics for renewable applicationsIntroduction to key aspects of power-electronics utilization in renewable energy applications, including the basic operation principles, system-level properties, control, and modeling. Practical experiences are gained via the simulation exercises. ...
ME-446: Liquid-gas interfacial heat and mass transferThis course covers the fundamental analysis of liquid-gas interfacial heat and mass transfer in various contexts
including power generation, water purification, and cooling. Students will learn about the multiscale physics involved in
evaporation, boiling, ...
ME-469: Nano-scale heat transferIn this course we study heat transfer (and energy conversion) from a microscopic perspective. First we focus on understanding why classical laws (i.e. Fourier Law) are what they are and what are their limits of validity. Next we discuss emerging opportunit ...
EE-580: Introduction to the design of space mechanismsSpace environment is different from what we can experience on Earth, requiring specific design approaches in order to achieve reliable operations. Engineers must hence face new challenges stimulating their creativity to tackle those particular constraints. ...
ENV-410: Science of climate changeThe course equips students with a comprehensive scientific understanding of climate change covering a wide range of topics from physical principles, historical climate change, greenhouse gas emissions, the IPCC assessment to future scenarios and climate ac ...
ME-468: Solar energy conversionThe course will provide fundamentals and technological details of solar energy conversion devices and systems, including 1) solar fuels by photoelectrochemistry, photocatalysis, and solar thermochemistry, 2) solar electricity by PV and concentrated solar p ...
MSE-649: Crystal growth by epitaxyThis is an interactive course explaining the main physical and chemical concepts to understand epitaxy of crystalline thin films and what determines the morphology, composition and structure of a material grown per epitaxy both in the bulk and as nanostruc ...
AR-301(ar): Studio BA5 (Devaux)L'atelier consiste en une mise en situation de projet dans l'existant, à a fois concrète et prospective. Celle-ci s'étend du diagnostic à la réhabilitation, en passant par la reprogrammation. La halle Tapponnier, construite à Annemasse en 1929 selon un pro ...
