To.Sc.Al'And (canceled for Covid Outbreak)

12-17 April 2021: To.Sca.Lake moves to Granada (Spain). The new edition is To.Sc.Al'And will be shifted to Fall 2021.
To.Sc.Al'And: Total Scattering for Nanotechnology in Al Andalus.
Speakers, Venue & Registrations: See the announcement distributed in Fall 2020
Organizers: J.A.R. Navarro & J.M.Delgado-Lopez (Granada), N.Masciocchi & A.Guagliardi (Como)
Hands-on tutorials on the DebUsSY and PDFGui suites of programs will be included.




September 2020: Postdoctoral position opens

A post-doctoral position (Assegno di Ricerca) will soon be opened within the To.Sca.Lab Group at the Insubria University in Como (Italy), in collaboration with the Italian CNR. Goal of the post-doc project is characterizing structure and microstructure of binary semiconductor nanocrystals (Quantum Dots) by coupling Small and Wide Angle X-ray Scattering techniques within a total scattering approach. Basic knowledge of crystallography and X-ray, neutron or electron diffraction methods are required. A Ph.D. in Chemistry, Physics, Material Science or related fields is required or, alternatively, the candidate should be close to the end of his/her Ph.D program (and already admitted to the final defense).
