About

This summer school will cover the fundamentals and applications of Surface Science techniques for probing molecular interactions and manipulation of surfaces at the nanoscale. Techniques will include: Scanning Probe and Electron Microscopies, Electron and Optical Spectroscopies, Surface Structure from Diffraction Techniques and the Modelling of Surfaces and Adsorption on Surfaces. These can be applied to study of surfaces of strongly correlated materials, surface and thin-film magnetism, bio-interfaces, atmospheric sciences, astrochemistry, battery science and electrochemistry and catalysis.

IOP Thin Films and Surface Science Poster Prize
A Poster Prize will be awarded to the best student poster decided by a panel of judges, and is £100. The winner will also be highlighted in the TFSG newsletter.
