Summary:

Physicists and other scientists describe both basic and advanced experimental optical techniques that are commonly used to study materials. The goal is to provide enough information that researchers with different levels of experience can build and/or use a working setup, acquire data on both simple and complex materials, and analyze and interpret the data to obtain insight into fundamental material properties with minimal reliance on other sources. The topics include semiconductors and their nanostructures, carrier dynamics in bulk semiconductors and metals after ultra-short pulse excitation, time-resolved magneto-optical spectroscopy, near-field scanning optical microscopy, and recent developments in spatially and temporally resolved optical characterization of solid-state materials.
