First International Workshop on Complex Glasses 17-19 October 2023 Warsaw

Venue: 
Warsaw (2 days) and Otwock (1 day)
Date: 
Tue, 2023-10-17 12:00 to Thu, 2023-10-19 13:00

Metallic glasses have been for a long while a promising direction in materials research, and the field faces a variety of questions from how to understand their atomic structure, make them in bulk, design alloys with specific properties, and study their mechanical behavior.

Thanks to recent advancements in computational and experimental techniques, including the use of machine learning, new avenues have opened up for research in this area. In analogy to their metallic brethren, multi-component or High-Entropy Metallic Glasses have also emerged as a new class of amorphous materials with interesting properties and potential applications.

This workshop has the intention of bring together glass researchers from different backgrounds and fields and discuss the latest developments in this area. The program will include contributions from experimental research, including examples of novel synthesis routes and characterization techniques, as well as theoretical and design approaches to tackle the challenges posed by these complex materials.

In addition to the workshop, we have organized some social events in Warsaw. On the first day, there will be a brief city tour of Warsaw, followed by an aperitif in a skybar with panoramic views. On the second day, attendees are invited to a Chopin concert and a dinner at a local restaurant.

We invite researchers and experts to contribute to the workshop by presenting their latest findings in complex glasses.
