Seven Fraunhofer Institutes and three faculties of the Technische Universität Dresden as well as Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin cluster their competencies and cover the complete range of topics in the field of nanoanalysis. The institutes are flexibly linked and also cope with comprehensive project requirements.
The European Nanoanalysis Symposium, organized by the Dresden Fraunhofer Cluster Nanoanalysis (DFCNA), was held as a hybrid event on October 9, 2020. The symposium provided highlights in the field of nanoanalysis, represented by 8 invited talks of world class speakers and a poster session with 50 contributions from 15 countries.
The symposium covered the topics of nanoanalysis and materials characterization along the whole value and innovation chain, from fundamental research up to industrial applications. It brought virtually together about 100 scientists and engineers from universities, research institutions, equipment manufacturers and industrial end-users. New results in disruptive nanoanalysis techniques were reported in several talks and in the poster sessions, and novel solutions in the field of materials characterization for process and quality control were shown.
The discussions and interactions between the stakeholders helped to identify gaps in the fields of advancing nanoanalysis and materials characterization and to propose actions to close them and to support industrial exploitation of innovative materials.
The Dresden Nanoanalysis Symposium, organized by the Dresden Fraunhofer Cluster Nanoanalysis (DFCNA), was held at Fraunhofer IKTS Dresden (Germany), Maria-Reiche-Strasse 2, on August 30, 2019. In that year, the symposium stood under the particular motto: "Nano-scale characterization for cutting-edge materials research and sustainable materials development".
The symposium provided highlights in the field of nanoanalysis, represented by 3 keynote talks, 9 invited talks of world class speakers and a poster session.
