Seeing At The Nanoscale VI :: July 9-11, 2008

Have your voice heard among your peers and experts in nanotechnology!

Welcome to Seeing at the Nanoscale VI, the annual scientific conference focusing on nanostructural imaging, characterization, and modification using scanning probe microscopy (SPM) and related techniques.

The conference location is in the center of Berlin, Germany, July 9-11, 2008. Sponsored by Veeco Instruments and supported by Humboldt University Berlin, Department of Physics, this event includes technical presentations, a nanotechnology poster contest, and a gala dinner to get special flaviour from Berlin.
Highlighted by the conference chairman Prof. Dr. Jürgen P. Rabe Seeing at the Nanoscale VI provides an optimum forum for "scientists to speak to scientists" on a wide variety of nanotechnology topics with four technical sessions on:
