TAILored surfaces in Operando conditions: structure and Reactivity

This meeting will be devoted to recent advances in the operando investigation of reactivity at surfaces from both experimental and theoretical points of view.

The sessions of the workshop will cover various topics, mainly related to operando studies of the structure and the reactivity of a large range of catalytic tailored materials, including model surfaces, well-defined supported nanoparticles and electrochemical systems. The oral presentations and poster sessions will be open to a wide list of experimental techniques including spectroscopy, microscopy, X-ray scattering and scanning probes, new developments of instrumentation, and also to recent advances in the field of theoretical approaches and models of surface science and heterogeneous catalysis.

Five invited lectures given by renowned scientists will be included in the program.

This 4-days workshop will take place on March 29 – April 1, 2016 at the Novotel Fontainebleau in Ury (France), near Paris.

The sessions of the workshop will cover various topics, mainly related to operando studies of the structure and the reactivity of a large range of catalytic tailored materials, including model surfaces, well-defined supported nanoparticles and electrochemical systems.
