Low Energy Ion Scattering (LEIS) workshop 2019

Thursday 13 June 2019

MESA+ Institute for Nanotechnology

University of Twente, Enschede, The Netherlands

Wednesday 29 May 2019: registration deadline for the LEIS workshop 2019

Description and Aim

The annual European LEIS Users Workshop will be organised at the University of Twente. During this one day workshop, researchers involved in surface analysis with Low-Energy Ion Scattering (LEIS) and related techniques can exchange their most recent results and experiences. The aim is to provide an informal and effective platform for discussing the LEIS technique and promote the use of LEIS as an analytical tool for surface and thin film analysis with ultimate sensitivity. We invite researchers using LEIS and related techniques, scientists working on theory of ion scattering and researchers with interest for application of the LEIS technique to join this meeting.

In the workshop programme there is space for short contributions on analysis with LEIS and development of the technique. Poster contributions can also be accommodated. Moreover, also informal discussion sessions will be organised, where users and researchers interested in the LEIS technique can exchange results and ideas.

The registration form can be used for submitting an abstract for a poster and/or for suggesting topics for discussion sessions.
