Nanometrology and advanced characterization are addressed through methods for investigating nanoscale structure, composition, properties and behavior. This session at the World Nanotechnology Conference covers electron and scanning probe microscopy, spectroscopy, chemical mapping, X-ray and scattering techniques, and in-situ or operando analysis. The scope also includes nanoscale mechanical and electrical measurements, calibration, measurement standards and uncertainty. Discussions will connect instrument development and analytical practice with reproducibility, data interpretation and the challenges of examining materials under relevant experimental or operating conditions.
Abstract Scope and Participation
Submissions are invited on new measurement techniques, methodological improvements, multimodal analysis, image processing, reference materials and comparative characterization studies. Research on established instruments and emerging platforms is equally welcome. Microscopists, spectroscopists, metrologists, analytical scientists, materials researchers, instrument developers and students are encouraged to share approaches that strengthen measurement reliability and the interpretation of nanoscale experimental results.
