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), Tukuba, Japan
- Host: Dr. Masahiko Isobe
Following the first workshop on Materials Aspects of Novel Quantum Systems (MANQS) was held in Stuttgart in 2023 (https://www.fkf.mpg.de/7993694/2023_09_MANQS), the second workshop will take place at the National Institute for Materials Science (NIMS) in Tsukuba, Japan.
Breakthroughs in various fields of research often depend on the synthesis of new materials and their single crystal growth. Currently, many quantum materials are emerging from the efforts of scientists actively working in this field. The aim of this workshop is to bring together junior and senior experts working on the synthesis of novel quantum materials to exchange ideas.
The second workshop will focus on the discovery of new quantum and functional materials, as well as the synthesis, crystal growth techniques and properties of novel materials. NIMS and MPI-FKF are organizing this event to create a global platform for materials synthesis and crystal growth.
