Summer School »Characterization of micro- and nano-materials« 2025

The Summer School 2025 on »Characterization of micro- and nano-materials« took place  at the BTU Cottbus-Senftenberg from September 15th to 19th, 2025. This year, the key aspect was »Batteries: Fundamentals, Materials, Applications, and Recycling«.

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.


Within the five-day program, participants were able to gain and exchange knowledge based on introductory tutorials and specific talks rendered by renowned scientists and specialists in their various fields. Complementing the lectures within the first three days, practical training sessions in the last two days provided an opportunity to see and experience selected experimental methods and techniques experienced »live and in action«.
