The 5th International Characterization Symposium (ISC´25) is organized by academics and researchers belonging to different scientific areas of the Afyon Kocatepe University (AKU,Türkiye), Harbin Institute of Technology (China), Hangzhou Dianzi University (China), University of Nevşehir Hacı Bektaş (Türkiye), University of Erciyes (Türkiye), Giresun University (Türkiye), NED University of Engineering and Technology (The Materials Engineering Department), Sabancı University Nanotechnology Research and Application Center (SUNUM)
Aims and Scope
The International Characterization Symposium aims to serve as a global platform for researchers, academicians, industry professionals, and policymakers to exchange knowledge, foster collaboration, and discuss advancements in material and system characterization techniques. The symposium focuses on promoting interdisciplinary research by bridging gaps between various scientific disciplines, including physics, chemistry, biology, and engineering. Its key objectives include advancing the development of innovative characterization methods, enhancing the understanding of material properties at the nanoscale and macroscale, and encouraging the application of these methods in addressing global challenges such as energy sustainability, environmental conservation, and technological innovation. Additionally, the symposium aspires to create opportunities for young scientists and researchers to network with leading experts, fostering an environment conducive to the development of future pioneers in the field. Through keynote speeches, technical sessions, and workshops, the event aims to set the stage for groundbreaking discussions that drive the field forward and contribute to the collective progress of science and technology.
