conference

As part of the Open Science programme, on November 21 and 22, 2019, a Student Scientific Conference took place presenting results of students’ study stays. FZU visiting students have been successful three times.

The conference and workshop were focused on the latest discoveries in the area of crystal growth, epitaxy, characterization and applications.

Matěj Hývl from the Department of Thin Films and Nanostructures presented a contribution entitled “Nanoscale Study of the Hole-selective Passivating Contacts for High-Efficiency Silicon Solar Cells Using C-AFM Tomography“ for which he received one of the three awards for the best poster at the conference.

The Meeting comprised of 27 talks and 19 poster presentations from academia and industry and covered a broad spectrum of topics ranging from technology, fundamentals, device design, modelling, advanced characterization, to end-user products.

The works presented results of basic research of diamond material with potential application in wastewater treatment and the detection of pollutants in water or in the atmosphere.

Czech scientists were awarded during the 9th International Conference on Nanomaterials – Nanocon 2017 in Brno.
