An Online Meeting, January 20-22, 2021
Recent Developments in
High-Power Impulse Magnetron Sputtering
The 96th IUVSTA Workshop
About The Event
Scope of the meeting
This workshop, held on an online platform, will deal with recent development of high-power impulse magnetron sputtering (HiPIMS). It will provide a networking environment with oral presentations, poster presentations and exhibits. The virtual platform will allow you to interaction with the invited speakers and all other participants of the workshop.
Invited contributions
contributions
The platform will give space for about seven poster presentations each day. All non-invited scientific participants are offered the possibility to present a poster. A poster can consist of one or several images that can be presented in smaller groups of up to fifteen. Approved posters will be assigned a dedicated area on the conference floor.
Exhibition
The workshop will give companies active in the field the possibility to present and interact with potential customers for a small fee. Contact the organizers for more information (contact@hipims.today) or register below, and we will contact you.
how?
We will use the most suitable virtual platform available at the time. (At present we consider using wonder.me.) Prior to the meeting you will receive a password. There will be a new password each day. No technical equipment, other than a computer equipped with a web browser, a microphone and a camera, will be needed. Today the platform works best when using Firefox or Google Chrome.
