After passing this course you will be able to solve a design, implementation or investigative task with limited supervision, and to report the result of such a task. More precisely, you will be able to

• plan, carry through and report such a task in solid state devices,
• obtain and evaluate information applicable for carrying out the task,
• choose a course of approach and define, follow and follow up a plan for carrying out the task in a given resource budget,
• report your results in writing, professionally,
• show in depth knowledge in an area of solid state devices.

Other 3rd cycle courses in semiconductor devices or semiconductor physics.

If the course is discontinued, students may request to be examined during the following two academic years.

• EXA1 - Examination, 3.0 credits, grading scale: P, F

Based on recommendation from KTH’s coordinator for disabilities, the examiner will decide how to adapt an examination for students with documented disability.
