Dear Sirs,
We have a great pleasure to invite you for the 11 th Workshop on Applications of Scanning Probe Microscopy –
STM/AFM 2022 which will be held in Zakopane from Wednesday, November 30 to Sunday, December 4, 2022, at the HYRNY
Hotel (http://www.hyrny.pl/). The Workshop is organized by the Centre for Nanometer-scale Science and Advanced Materials,
NANOSAM, of the Faculty of Physics, Astronomy, and Applied Computer Sciences, Jagiellonian University in Krakow, Poland.
Like at the previous meetings (STM/AFM 2000, 2002... 2018) the main goal of the Workshop is to gather scientists who
are, or who would like to be involved in surface research with use of the experimental techniques known under a common name
of Scanning Probe Microscopy (SPM), such as: Scanning Tunneling Microscopy (STM), Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM), and
other related techniques operating either under ultra high vacuum environment, or in liquid/gas atmosphere. We wish the
Workshop to be an interdisciplinary meeting for participants representing different theoretical and experimental disciplines of
scientific research.
During the last meeting STM/AFM 2018, (see http://www.stmafm2018.nanosam.pl) we had 135 registered participants
from 31 research institutions in Poland and the following SPM companies were presenting their products:
• Anton Paar
• APVACUUM sp. z o.o.
• BRUKER
• COMEF
• LABSOFT
• Measline
• NANOANDMORE GMBH
• nanoscoregmbh
• UNISOKU
• PIK INSTRUMENTS
• ScientaOmicron GmbH
The Organizers would like to invite all interested companies to present their instruments and marketing materials
during the Workshop. We believe that close relationship between the producers and distributors of scientific equipment
and the community of Workshop participants is of great importance to further development of nanotechnology and
nanoscience in Poland. There is a possibility for interested companies to choose from the following forms of participation:
1. exhibition of scientific equipment and/or display of brochures, books and other scientific papers (including
distribution of marketing materials) – 2000 PLN (~420 Euro) +VAT fee,
(the above fee covers 6m2 booth for exhibition of equipment/materials and posters, a table and two chairs and also
distribution of marketing materials among the Workshop participants)
2. 20 min oral presentation atthe relevant scientific session
(abstract needed by 10.10.2022)– 1400 PLN (~300 Euro) +VAT fee,
3. distribution of marketing materials (attached to the conference materials given to participants) for companies
not attending the Workshop – 600 PLN (~125 Euro) +VAT fee.
A personal cost of participation is 1800 PLN (about 400 EURO per person - full board package based on single room
accommodation, in case of double room –1500 PLN (VAT included)).
The deadline for registration of the Companies and payments: October 19, 2022.
