The Graphene Flagship's Graphene Study 2018, winter edition, will focus on the topic: structural characterization of graphene-based materials.
It will provide delegates with a strategic overview of the most common techniques and methodologies available to determine the nature, composition and behavior of 2D nanomaterials, thin films and nanostructured composites. Attendees will learn how different techniques can be used to probe into the internal structure and properties of a 2D material or composite.
The programme will include:
- An introduction to what is meant by materials characterization;
- The essential elements of the physical basis for x-ray and electron diffraction;
- Imaging, optical and electron-optical microscopies - imaging at the macroscale to the nanoscale:
- SEM/FIB'Tomography and 3D'Microstructure Analysis
- Introduction to (S)TEM imaging and Analysis
- Advanced electron microscopy imaging
- EELS and EDS spectroscopy
- Scanning probe techniques - physical principles and generic methodologies
- XPS spectroscopy
- X-Ray Diffraction
- Raman spectroscopy
- Mechanical
Workshops:
