主题：【分享】Piezoresponse Force Microscopy 日本 交流会

Dear colleagues

You are cordially invited to attend the International Tutorial Workshop on Piezoresponse Force Microscopy - Instrumentation, Theory, and Applications (5th in series), to be held at National Institute for Materials Science (NIMS), Tsukuba, Japan on August 19-21. The workshop precedes the IMF-ISAF conference at Xi'an Jiaotong University in China.

The workshop will feature a series of tutorial and invited lectures on instrumental and theoretical aspects of PFM, nanoscale ferroelectricity, and emerging techniques such as Scanning Nonlinear Dielectric Microscopy. The tutorial speakers include Andrei Kholkin (U. Aveiro), Sergei Kalinin (ORNL), Alexei Gruver
man (UNL), Roger Proksch (Asylum), Venkat Gopalan (Penn State), James Gimjewski (UCLA) and Jiangyu Li (UW). The detailed information on the workshop is available on-line at http://www.nims.go.jp/omc/pfm5.html.

For the first time, the workshop will feature tutorials on SNDM, tunneling experiments in PFM, relaxor ferroelectric imaging and spectroscopy, novel dynamic modes and spectroscopic imaging, reflecting the tremendous progress in the field in the last year.

The workshop will also feature the series of hands-on tutorials and equipment demoes in PFM and SNDM operation.

Yours

Kenji Kitamura and Sergei V. Kalinin
