AMAS 2026 - In Situ Materials Characterisation
About
The 'In Situ Materials Characterisation' workshop at AMAS XVII, on Tuesday the 10th of February 2026, will discuss cutting-edge techniques in SEM-based in situ materials characterisation, including:1) Nano-indentation and micro-mechanical testing to measure strength, deformation and failure mechanisms inside your SEM.
2) Correlative AFM-in-SEM microscopy to produce atomic-scale topographical, morphological and electrical information from the same region of interest.
3) In situ electrical characterisation to measure current–voltage relationships and nanoscale conductivity with sub-micron accuracy in individual microstructures or devices.
4) Thermo-mechanical testing platforms that expose samples to controlled heating and cooling, allowing direct study of temperature-dependent behaviour, phase transitions and material fatigue.
