25 - 28 August 2019 in Chemnitz, Germany
The 2019 International Symposium on Epi-Graphene was held from 25th to 28th of August 2019 at TU Chemnitz, Germany. The meeting was devoted to the science and application of epi-graphene on silicon carbide. Aspects of growth, characterization, functionalization by, e.g. intercalation and applications are discussed from experimental and theoretical point of view.
Schloss Ringberg, 17- 20 February 2019
At the conference center of the Max-Planck Society, Schloss Ringberg, was a 3-day symposium on correlated and collective phenomena in low dimensional structures and complex materials. Confirmed keynote speakers were: Silke Biermann (Paris), Ralph Claessen (Würzburg), Hanno Weitering (Tennesee), Franz Himpsel (Madison), Michael Horn-von Hoegen (Duisburg-Essen) and Uli Höfer (Marburg). More details can be found here. The symposium was organized by the Research Unit FOR1700 and the FHI in Berlin.
TU Chemnitz, 24 January 2019
A central part of this meeting was a mutual exchange on current issues and methods related to transmission electron microscopy. The status of the application for the new TEM center was also a subject.
Forschungszentrum Jülich, 19- 21 September 2018
This workshop aimed to bring together the experts in the field of 4-tip STM surface transport measurements, as well as researchers interested in this new technique. The participants presented their latest results on nanoscale charge transport, obtained with multi-tip techniques. Also, common experimental issues and aspects of the data analysis which occur for this new technique were discussed during the workshop.
TU Chemnitz, 19. Oktober 2017
Bei diesem Workshop wurden in fakultätsübergreifender Weise die laufenden TEM-Aktivitäten der TUC kurz vorgestellt. Ziel war es einen Überblick über die TEM Aktivitäten zu bekommen.
Hannover Congress Centrum, July 02 - 07, 2017
The 16th International Conference on the Formation of Semiconductor Interfaces (ICFSI-16) was hosted in Hannover, Germany. ICFSI-16 was primarily focused on phenomena at surfaces, interfaces, and nanostructures that are of strong current interest, based on semiconductor or insulator surfaces and interfaces, ranging from characterization at the atomic scale to prospects of applications.

Desden, March 21, 2017
Complex nanostructures on surfaces, e.g graphene nanoribbons, nanorods, atomic wires, or molecules in between junctions, provide a perfect platform to study both fundamental and application driven aspects. Many properties such as a targeted functionality of the nanostructure, instabilities, phase changes, etc. can be addressed and smartly probed by electron transport. 4-tip scanning probe techniques became very popular within the last years and have demonstrated their capability to address important physical and chemical aspects.

Bad Honnef, March 1–3, 2017
The "round-table", organized by research units FOM-1D, FOR1162 and FOR1700, covered hot topics of low dimensional physics, e.g. magnetism at the atomic scale, superconductivity in 2D, topologocally protected edge states, spin-orbit coupling, etc. Experimental realizations at surfaces were presented as well as state of the art theoretical descriptions of these high correlated systems under explicit consideration of the environment.
