The Summer School To.Sca.Lake 2.0: Total Scattering for Nanotechnology on the Como Lake offers an extended overview on Total Scattering Techniques (from X-rays to visible light) for Nanotechnology, complemented by lectures on synthesis and applications of advanced nanomaterials. Theoretical, experimental and modeling aspects of Wide and Small Angle scattering methods will be integrated by hands-on tutorials on well renowned programs for DSE and PDF Analysis (Debussy and PDFGui) and Demo sessions on SAXS and Light Scattering. The Workshop is open to all aspiring scholars and scientists in any area related to Nanoscience and Nanotechnology, and it is especially addressed to PhD students and young postdocs. The aim of the school is to deepen into both theoretical and applied frontier developments in these fields.

Plenary Session

• Session A - Nanomaterials for Electronic, Magnetic and Optic Applications. Carbon Nanostructures, Quantum Dots
  
• Session B - Industrial and Environmental Applications of Nanomaterials
• Session C - Bionanotechnology, Nanomaterials in Medicine
• Session D - Monitoring and Toxicity of Nanomaterials
  
• Session E - Advanced Methods of Preparation and Characterization of Nanomaterials

International Workshop on Advances in Nanoscience (SIWAN) is a forum where participants get a chance to show their results and get further motivation from listening to in-depth talks from top nanotechnology researchers. Every aspect of nanoscience is welcome at the SIWAN conference series because it is our goal to broaden the intellectual horizons and stimulate interdisciplinary idea exchange as much as possible.

Main topics of the conference

• synthesis and characterization of nanostructures and nanocomposites
• improving our fundamental understanding of physics and chemistry at the nanoscale
• applications of nanostructures in structural materials, catalysis, energy storage, energy conversion and electronics
• scale-up and commercialization of nanomaterial production
• health and safety issues related to the manufacturing and usage of nanoproducts
• bionanomaterials

In this workshop you will learn to interpret diffuse scattering and to simulate disordered crystal structures.Â

Defects are quite common in crystals and are responsible for a number of properties like ionic conductivity, electronic properties of indirect semiconductors etc.Â

In diffraction, defects manifest themselves by the presence of diffuse scattering. While its peak intensity usually is weak, the total scattering intensity will be an appreciable fraction of the Bragg intensities.Â

Thus, the description of these structures is largely incomplete without proper interpretation of the diffuse scattering.

The workshop covers the techniques to simulate and to refine disordered structures for a wide range of defects, and the corresponding calculation of the diffraction pattern for single crystals and powder, as well as the calculation of the pair distribution function PDF.
