Workshop
Forces and Photons in Single Molecule Junctions
Forces and Photons
The workshop will bring together experts in the two complementary fields of atomic force spectroscopy and optical spectroscopy investigating properties of single-molecule junctions. On the one hand, the combination of STM and AFM provides insight into the flexibility and mechanical stability of the junction, the electronic properties and electrostatic potentials distribution of the molecular component. On the other hand, the light emission from molecule-metal junctions gives information concerning the plasmon spectrum of the nanoscale cavity and its interaction with the molecule placed inside the junction.
The aim of the workshop is the discussion of compatibility and advantages of combining light and AFM in the very same experimental set-up.
Latest results will be presented by renowned invited speakers. Additionally, we welcome the participation of all interested scientist, in particular PhD students and PostDocs. If you like to attend the workshop and present a poster, please, send us an email with a short abstract to forcenphoton@gmail.com until 31st of August.
Dates:
The workshop will be held during 23.9.-25.9.2013. The scientific program will start on Monday after lunch and end on Wednesday at lunch time.
Location:
The workshop will take place at the Physics Department of Freie Universität Berlin (Arnimallee 14, 14195 Berlin).
