The coursework submitted for 4B7 counts for 25% of the available credit for the module. You are recommended to do both experiments, as both have relevance to the course; however, only one report may be submitted for credit.
For each experiment, please make the report at most four pages long. You may include extra pages of data, graphs and images above the total.
The deadline for handing in your report for the coursework items described below will be 5pm on Monday 2 May 2011.
Specimen write-ups will be posted electronically some time after the submission deadline.
Note that the original purpose of these was for revision. This year the
exam was rescheduled to a date before the hand-in deadline so this was not
possible.
Writing up does not get easier with the passage of time, and we would strongly recommend that you begin this without delay, while the memory of the experiment is fresh.
Please submit reports to the EIETL (Mr Gautrey) - they may be posted in the coursework cabinet on the landing outside. Your write-up MUST be accompanied by a properly completed coursework cover sheet, which most of you will have received at the experiment. These will also be available from Mr Gautrey in the EIETL. In the event you cannot obtain one this way, please visit the Teaching Office to collect a cover sheet. Reports submitted without a cover sheet cannot be accepted for credit. Please make sure your cover sheet is clearly marked with your details and the name of the responsible member of staff:
Electrical characterisation .. Mr Chuah
Microscopical examination .. Dr Holburn
Two laboratory experiments have been organised for the 4B7 Module. These are:
The Microscopical Examination option will be done by groups of 4 (5 max); we expect there will be sufficient opportunities for all who wish to do it, even if they choose to write up the other experiment.
The main sessions are available for groups of 4 (5 absolute maximum), and are being run with kind assistance from Mr Bernie Breton & Dr Nicholas Caldwell.
The sessions will be held in the SEM lab, Room 40, Electrical Engineering Division, 9 J J Thomson Avenue, Cambridge. Please note: this is on the West Cambridge site, about a 15 minute bike ride from CUED. Map reference is here (location 3). Please don't be late!
They will take place on:
You must book a session in advance for this experiment. A CamTools On-line booking sheet will be made live from Wednesday 24th February. Please sign up.
Please organise yourselves into groups of up to 4 and mark your names in one of the available slots. A lab-sheet will be issued and a write-up will be expected from each student. You will need to hand in the lab-sheet as well.
Note: it will not be possible to organise catch-up or additional sessions for this experiment.
There is a PDF document showing relevant images (beware, 2 Mbyte download)
The lab sheet is available as
a PDF (800 Kbyte
download). 
Note: this is
the version for 2011.
This will normally be done in groups of two, though it is possible to do the experiment singly if you prefer. We expect to be able to provide three stations to carry out this experiment, i.e. enough for three simultaneous groups of two.
The experiment has being set up in the EIET Lab, on the 1st floor of the Inglis Building. You will need to book a session. A CamTools On-line booking sheet will go live from Wednesday 24th February - please sign up.
Sessions are available at the following times, with a demonstrator attending:-
1400-1600 on Monday 7 March
1400-1600 on Tuesday 8 March
1400-1600 on Wednesday 9 March
1400-1600 on Thursday 10 March
Catch-up sessions without demonstrator support are possible at other times, but you are expected to sign up for a scheduled session.
Three stations will be available on each day. Please organise yourselves into groups of two and enter group names in the chosen slots. A lab-sheet will be issued and a write-up will be expected from each student. Students involved are shown in the tables below.
The lab sheet is available as
a PDF. Note: this is
the version for 2011.
Students involved are shown in the tables below (Electrical Characterisation sign-up details will be updated at the end of this week).
Please note: in 2010-11 the columns 'handed in' etc are not in use as marking is being done anonymously.
