Microscopy and Microspectroscopy of Nanomaterials in Liquids
Microscopy and Microspectroscopy of Nanomaterials in Liquids
This one-day workshop will focus on one of the most challenging areas of microscopy - the quantitative examination of the dynamics of nanomaterials in liquids.
Internationally known academic and industrial experts in the field of optical and electron microscopy and spectroscopy of liquids and opto-fluidics will join this exciting workshop to discuss the most critical technological insights, discoveries and new practical applications. The workshop will cover the fundamental techniques such as optical microscopy, TEM, SEM, AFM, Raman and FTIR for a wide range of possible applications, from microbiology and chemistry to materials and optical engineering. The workshop will also include hands-on demonstrations and will offer the opportunity to test participants’ samples on-site.
Registration is now closed.
We are accepting abstracts for Poster Presentations.
The Abstract Submission Deadline has been extended until Tuesday 1 August 2017.

Dr Anna Baldycheva
Engineering & Physical Sciences Section Deputy Chair
University of Exeter
Anna is an Assistant Professor in 2D Optoelectronic materials in Engineering at the University of Exeter. Dr. Baldycheva’s research group works in the areas of 2D Materials, Si Photonics and Microfluidics. The research interests span from the development of new 2D material based layered and liquid crystal nanocomposites to the engineering of integrated 2D material-Si hybrid electronic-photonic devices for application in communications, energy harvesting, and bio-chemical sensing. Since 2010, Dr. Baldycheva authored and co-authored over 50 peer-reviewed papers and conference proceedings. -

Professor Roland Kröger
Engineering & Physical Sciences Section Chair
University of York
Roland is a Professor at the Department of Physics at the University of York concentrating on Nano- and Biomaterials using electron microscopy as well as various spectroscopy tools including Raman microscopy and X-ray techniques. He obtained his PhD from the University of Hamburg/Germany and the Fraunhofer Institute for Surface Science and Technology in Braunschweig/Germany. Roland has since built a large expertise in Materials Physics and Materials Science covering diamond thin films, metal/semiconductor nanostructures, nitride based light-emitting devices, metal nanoparticles for biomedical applications and biominerals using focused ion beam as a key method for sample preparation and analysis. Besides his interest in multi-lengthscale material characterization in 3D he is particularly focussing on in situ techniques to study mineralisation processes in liquid environments. -
