The Max Planck Institute for Polymer Research (MPI-P) and Asylum Research are co-organising the second International Workshop for Scanning Probe Microscopy for Energy Applications, held in Germany.
The conference will be held at the MPI-P in Mainz, Germany, from 8-10 June 2011.
It will focus on sharing new research involving characterisation of the microscopic mechanisms underpinning solar cell, battery and fuel cell operations, as well as materials used for alternative energy applications at the nanometer to micron range.
Recent advances and techniques in SPM/AFM, used to characterised energy relevant materials and systems, will also be addressed.
The three-day meeting will include invited and contributed talks and a poster session.
Equipment labs and tutorials will be held on the last day for demonstration of recently developed dynamic and multi-spectral SPM modes using Asylum Research's Cypher and MFP-3D SPM/AFMs.
Abstracts are now being accepted for contributed talks and a poster session.
Information on the agenda, abstract submission, and registration can be found on the event website.
