Workshop on Materials Characterization Techniques for XRD and XRF (ICMAB, 19th May 2014)
- Details
- Created on 04 February 2014
As part of RADDEL training programme activities, a workshop in materials characterization techniques will be held at ICMAB-CSIC on 19th May 2014:
http://congresses.icmab.es/mct2014/
The workshop includes the contribution of members of ICMAB-CSIC, ITJA-CSIC, ALBA, ICN2 and of industrial partners PARALAB and RIGAKU. The workshop will deal with X-ray diffraction (XRD) and X-ray Fluorescence (XRD), two available techniques for the characterization of materials.
