Centre of the Advanced Structure Analysis (ASTRA)

Abstract

Project ASTRA aims to establish at the Institute of Physics a top laboratory for structure analysis of solid state compounds and materials. The project will help to equip a special research laboratory unique in the Czech Republic as well as at the European scale. This laboratory will provide complex research of atomic structure of solids, namely of new materials, drugs and environmental important minerals, to research teams, university students and (within free instrumental capacity) to industrial users.

The laboratory will be interdisciplinary by its nature, studying functional materials, materials with potential industrial application, drugs and compounds important for environmental problematics. Its research will be accelerated by top experimental equipment, unique know-how of the researchers and broad interdisciplinary collaboration.
