Nanoanalysis using finely focused ion and electron beams (NANOBEAMS)

Grunddaten zu diesem Projekt

Beschreibung

The Nanobeams Network of Excellence (NoE) concentrates on analytical techniques using focused ion and electron beams in order to develop analytical techniques and instruments matching the requirements of nanomaterials. This Network regroups the manufacturers of scientific instruments as well as the leading research laboratories in the field. The main activities of the different partners in the Nanobeams NoE are the instrumental development, the coordination of fundamental research, the application to nanomaterials, the coordination of manufacturers, the organisation of an annual European workshop and training sessions on the different instruments. One of the strong points of the Nanobeams NoE is the creation of a European PhD School based in Luxembourg in close collaboration with the University of Luxembourg. This PhD school aims at forming scientists, specialised in the field of nano-analysis. The students attend lectures given by scientists from the different partner laboratories and have the opportunity to perform their research work in at least two of these laboratories situated in two different countries.
