Overview
The summer school is dedicated to PhD students and young post-doctoral researchers who are interested in developing knowledge in the area of active functional coatings and surfaces.
The main scope is preparation and advanced characterization of multifunctional surfaces with a special focus on active protective coatings and self-healing layers. The basic strategies and recent trends in design of functional surfaces via application of “smart” nanotechnologies will be addressed. Special focus will be also given to localized electrochemical techniques for understanding processes in confined defects as well as to analytical methods for analysis of interfaces.
Lectures presented by recognised specialists in the targeted topics will be accompanied by practical lab-sessions where showcases of development and characterization of active functional coatings will be addressed. The participants will be able to go through the full process from preparation of coatings to final characterization of the desired functionalities.
