CEO of NT-MDT America. Dr. Magonov is involved in scanning probe microscopy activities since 1988 as the Head of STM/AFM laboratory (FMF, Freiburg University) and principal scientist in Digital Instruments, Veeco Instruments and Agilent Instruments. Recent developments and applications include single-pass electric modes, Hybrid mode, etc.” |
Prof. Lukas Eng is Professor at the Institute of the Applied Physics of Dresden Technical University, Germany. His main scientific demands are the structural, optical (vis, IR, THz) and electrical properties of nanosystems based on ferroic materials. |
Prof. Andrei Kholkin is one of the Pioneers in the field of the Piezo Response Force Microscopy (PFM). He is currently based at the University of Aveiro in Portugal. |
