Summer School »Characterization of micro- and nano-materials« 2026
The Summer School 2026 on »Characterization of micro- and nano-materials« took place at the BTU Cottbus-Senftenberg from September 7th to 11th, 2026. This year, the key aspect was »In-situ and operando techniques for studying physical and chemical processes«.
The scope of the Summer School comprises modern topics in materials synthesis, experimental characterization, and application. Particular attention was paid to state-of-the-art advanced methods for materials characterization.
Throughout the five-day program, participants gained and exchanged knowledge through introductory tutorials and specific talks delivered by renowned scientists and specialists from various fields. Complementing the lectures during the first three days, the last two days featured practical training sessions where selected experimental methods and techniques were demonstrated and experienced »live and in action«.
