ACSES workshop
on Practical Surface Analysis is taking place on February 22 &
23, 2008. Please click here
for details.
The
University of Alberta Faculties of Engineering and Science are
collaborating to develop an integrated facility for surface characterization
and modification.
*
* *
The facility
will allow innovative research to build an established strengths
in heterogenious catalysis, natural resource extraction, corrosion
and wear, microfabrication and electronic materials.
*
* *
New methods
are being developed to control the physical, chemical and biological
surface properties of materials. These will be central to many
applications in resource extraction, petrochemicals, microelectronics,
medical implants, pharmaceutical, and emerging micro- and nanotechnologies.
*
* *
Our interdisciplinary
team will synthesize, characterize, and test new surfaces in actual
applications and devices. |
