2nd Workshop on “Materials Characterization: Structure, Spectroscopy and Microscopy”
August 18, 2025 - August 23, 2025 View PDF
Comprehensive understanding of materials properties is vital for innovative design for new and improved applications. Macroscopic properties crucially depend on composition and structure; the crystal and micro-structure of materials. This six-day 2nd workshop will introduce the fundamental framework for diffraction, spectroscopy and imaging methods for structural and compositional characterization of materials. This workshop will be fruitful to those who are planning to use or using essential materials characterization tools such as x-ray diffraction for structural analysis, Uv-Vis spectroscopy for electronic and optical properties, IR and Raman spectroscopy for vibrational analysis, x-ray photoelectron and energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy for compositional analysis, electron microscopies for microstructural and texture analysis, scanning probe microscopy for surface topography and microstructure. The workshop will help understand the relation between structure and materials' properties essential for materials scientists and engineers, that expands the knowledge base in the field of Materials Characterization. For new researchers, this workshop can be a great opportunity to learn, explore and make lifelong collaborations. The first 6 Days Workshop on “Materials Characterization: Structure, Spectroscopy and Microscopy” August 19-24, 2019 was attended by more than 80 participants, mostly PhD students and some early career scientists and academicians.
