SPS 2000

SPS 2000, the second international conference on scanning probe spectroscopy and the 30th IUVSTA workshop has now published a second call for papers for presentation at the event. The conference will be held in Hamburg, Germany, from 19 to 22 July 2000.

The meeting will focus on recent advances in instrument development, experimental methods, theoretical conceptions and applications of scanning probe spectroscopy.

The conference topics include:

- Scanning tunnelling spectroscopy on metals, semi-conductors and superconductors;
- Spin polarised scanning tunnelling spectroscopy;
- Inelastic scanning tunnelling spectroscopy;
- Scanning field emission spectroscopy;
- Ballistic electron emission spectroscopy;
- Atom probe spectroscopy;
- Scanning force spectroscopy;
- Scanning capacitance spectroscopy;
- Scanning near-field optical spectroscopy;
- Scanning thermal spectroscopy.

Particular emphasis will be placed on low-temperature scanning probe spectroscopy combining high spatial and high spectral resolution.

The event is sponsored by IUVSTA (an international federation of 30 national vacuum organisations), the German Science Foundation (DFG), the German Federal Ministry for Education and Research (BMBF) and the Freie und Hansestadt Hamburg.
