NIMS-MPI Workshop on
Materials Aspects of Novel Quantum Systems
- Start: Nov 18, 2025
- End: Nov 21, 2025
- Location: National Institute for Materials Science (NIMS), Tsukuba, Japan
- Host: Scientific Facility Crystal Growth
Following the first workshop on Materials Aspects of Novel Quantum Systems (MANQS) held in Stuttgart in 2023 (https://www.fkf.mpg.de/7993694/2023_09_MANQS), the second MANQS will take place at the National Institute for Materials Science (NIMS) in Tsukuba, Japan on 18th-21st November 2025.
Breakthroughs in materials science and condensed matter physics often stem from the discovery of novel materials. By bringing together physicists, chemists and material scientists, NIMS and MPI-FKF aim to foster interdisciplinary discussions on materials design and synthesis, unique properties and functions of new materials, and to inspire new directions in the exploration of novel quantum materials.
This year’s workshop will focus on:
• New Quantum and Functional Materials
• Synthesis and Crystal Growth Techniques
• Properties of New Exotic Materials
This workshop will feature keynote lectures, invited talks and poster presentations. Participation is free and open to all. If you are interested in attending, please contact the organizers.
Evening Arrival: November 18, 2025
Afternoon Departure: November 21, 2025
