16th IUVSTA International Summer School on Physics at Nanoscale

8 Jun 2021, 09:00 → 10 Jun 2021, 20:00 Europe/Prague

Cukr portable - "videoconferencing system" (Cukrovarnicka)

Antonín Fejfar (Institute of Physics, Czech Academy of Sciences), Tomáš Šikola (Institute of Physical Engineering, Faculty of Mechanical Engineering/CEITEC BUT, Brno University of Technology,)

The school aims at presenting current trends of research at both tutorial as well as state-of-the-art level. The school will also connect the fundamental research to the vital areas of technology: nano-electronics, renewable energy and life science applications.

The school is organized jointly by Institute of Physical Engineering FME BUT, CEITEC, Institute of Physics of the Czech Academy of Sciences, Czech Physical Society and Czech Vacuum Society as the 18th International Summer School of IUVSTA through its Nanometer Structures Division.

See the school web iss.fzu.cz for further information.
