B3.1
INTRODUCTION TO DIAGNOSTIC METHODS (NON- AND MICRO- DESTRUCTIVE). OPTICAL MICROSCOPY. ELECTRONIC MICROSCOPY. ATOMIC FORCE MICROSCOPY. LASERS
Purpose of the Course:
The purpose of the course is the introductory presentation of the main modern diagnostic methods (which are used) for works of art and cultural monuments. Typical problems encountered in the study of cultural heritage and an understanding of the role of different scientific methods of examination, the purpose, advantages and limitations of both micro-destructive (mD) and non-destructive (MD) methods, as well as their role in the multidisciplinary conservation/restoration process.
Specifically the following modules are taught:
- Introduction, and in-depth study, of the principles and practices of optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive spectroscopy, and atomic force microscopy.
- Brief introduction of lasers and their multiple applications as analytical, diagnostic and cleaning tools in the field of Cultural Heritage.
Course Analysis:
The course includes the following modules:
- Optical microscopy (metallography, stereomicroscopy),
- Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM),
- Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM),
- Atomic Force Microscopy,
Laser Ablation: interaction of laser radiation with matter with emphasis on the fine-tuning of their operational parameters in order to ensure optimal cleaning interventions for various crusts/ substrates.
