2. Shack-Hartmann Wavefront Sensor.
3. Crystallographic studies on particle size down to the nanoscale.
4. Ferromagnetic materials characterization (hysteresis loops)

-G82: Final Project (4th year. 2nd semester.)
Supervisors: All staff members of the group.
Realization, presentation and defense of an original work, individually done under the guidance of a supervisor. In it, the knowledge and skills acquired during the degree are applied. In this subject, that closes the degree, the following skills are developed: a clear perception of physical situations, knowing how to resort to adequate physical theories and mathematical methods, identifying the essential elements of a problem or system to build a valid and adequate model. In the case of works with an experimental component, the aim is to understand the instrumentation and experimental methods used, with the ability to perform independently and to describe, analyze and critically evaluate the values obtained. At the end of the work, the student will defend the work, orally and in writing.
