Learning outcomes
Textile Physics-Optical Methods are focused on study of interactions between electromagnetic radiation and materials generally. During this course students are confronted with basic principles of spectroscopy, microscopy, chromic materials and physical methods of polymer surface modification. Together with enhancement of basic knowledge from previous bachelor studies. Creation necessary requirements related to the deep understanding of physical principles of textile production are expected. This course describes systems and principles which are used during optical analysis of textile materials.
Theoretical and practical knowledge dealing with content of lectures and excercises
Prerequisites
Unspecified

Assessment methods and criteria
Combined examination

The credit: Finishing on all laboratory exercises. Elaborate and defence laboratory records. Finishing on knowledge test over fix limit of point figure. The examination: be composed of written and vive part.
