O r g a n i z e d by the
Hellenic Society for the Science and Technology of Condensed Matter (HSSTCM-ΕΕΕΤΣΥ) under the auspices of the School of Physics of the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki
Saturday 3 & Sunday 4 November 2018

The
workshop on “Materials at the Nanoscale” aims to provide an insight in
selected fields, applications and techniques related to nanomaterials.
The term nanomaterials refers to materials with at least one of its
dimensions at the nanoscale. They find numerous applications in
photonics, tribology, biomedicine, catalysis and many other fields.
The
lectures will include a short introduction with a review of fundamental
principles and examples of recent work. Experimental techniques that
provide information and allow the study of materials at the nanoscale,
synthesis methods and properties of certain types of nanomaterials,
biomedical, environmental, optical etc. applications of nanomaterials
will be presented. Theoretical aspects related to materials at the
nanoscale and issues related to the risks associated with nanomaterials
will be also presented.
The
workshop is aimed at M.Sc. and Ph.D. students who wish to expand their
knowledge in the field of nanoscale materials. Scientists, engineers and
technicians working in research and education, who are interested in
extending their knowledge in nanomaterials, will also benefit.
