19th International Conference on Microscopy of Semiconducting Materials http://msm2015.iopconfs.org

T

he Institute of Physics (IoP) biannual conference series “Microscopy of Semiconducting Materials” (MSMXIX) will be held March 29–April 2, 2015, at Murray Edwards College, University of Cambridge, UK. The conference has a long tradition of focusing on the most recent advances in the study of the structural and electronic properties of semiconducting materials by the application of transmission and scanning electron microscopy. The latest developments in the use of other important micro-characterization techniques,

including scanning probe microscopy and x-ray topography and diffraction, will also be featured. Devel
