Abstract Submission

Abstracts are invited on the application of TEM with in situ irradiation in fields including nuclear energy, nanostructures, semiconductors and materials in extraterrestrial environments. We also welcome technical talks on the design and construction of transmission electron microscopes with in situ irradiation facilities and their combination with other complimentary in situ environments and characterisation techniques.

Previous WOTWISI Events

The first Workshop On TEM With In Situ Irradiation (then titled Workshop on the Use of in situ TEM / Ion Accelerator Techniques in the Study of Radiation) was held at the University of Salford in the United Kingdom in 2008. It was supported with funding from the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EP/F012853/1) and aimed to build a network of those working in this highly specialised field through which they could share their knowledge, experience and latest research. There was also a particular emphasis on encouraging early stage researchers to attend so that they could benefit by developing contacts in the community to support the development of their expertise and careers.

Now heading to towards its fifth event, the network conceived at the first meeting is continuing to grow and still has at its heart an ethos of supporting early stage researchers in the field of transmission electron microscopy with in situ irradiation.

Getting to Huddersfield

Huddersfield is located in West Yorkshire in the foothills of the Pennines and just north of the Peak District National Park. Halfway between Manchester and Leeds, it is well serviced by road and rail links making it within easy reach of several international airports. If you prefer to fly to London, the train journey from either Kings Cross or Euston to Huddersfield will take between two and a half to three hours. The Huddersfield Narrow Canal also runs through the University campus but, with transit times by barge from downtown Manchester of four days or more, this mode of transport is not recommended for those on tight schedules.
