Elettra - Sincrotrone Trieste XXIV Users Meeting - Thematic Workshops 
WAVEFRONT (November 30-December 1, 2016) and SAFE (December 1-2, 2016)


WAVEFRONT workshop: New Frontiers and Advanced Applications of 4th 
generation light sources to Atomic, Molecular, Optical, and Cluster 
Science

The Workshop will take place in Trieste, Italy, on November 30-December 
1, 2016

The aim of the workshop is to bring together experts, established users, 
and prospective users, of synchrotrons and FELs to discuss the 
state-of-the-art of science with these light sources, and the new 
opportunities opening up in atomic, molecular, optical, and cluster 
physics and chemistry. The rapid development of these facilities, 
particularly of FELs, has enabled new experiments which were previously 
unfeasible, while theoretical developments suggest new avenues for 
research.

SAFE workshop: Smaller and Faster: Infrared and Terahertz 
Spectral-Imaging at the Nanoscale with Synchrotron Radiation and Free 
Electron Laser Sources


The Workshop will take place in Trieste, Italy on December 1-2, 2016

(http://www.elettra.eu/Conferences/2016/SAFE/)

InfraRed (IR) and Terahertz (THz) spectroscopies are well-established 
and robust tools for the chemical and structural characterization of 
materials and the explanation of their low-energy fundamental 
excitations. The versatility of these techniques allowed for their 
successful application into many fields of science, from Material 
Science and Chemistry to Biology and Medicine. In addition, the 
exploitation of the brightness advantage of IR and THz Synchrotron 
Radiation (SR) has revolutionized the IR spectroscopy field since the 
nineties, and spectromicroscopy with micrometric lateral resolution is a 
routine nowadays at SR facilities. However, being this limit ultimately 
imposed by diffraction, it is undefeatable in the far-field regime even 
with brilliant SR IR/THz sources.
Recent technical and scientific improvements permitted to break the 
far-field diffraction barrier and to improve the spatial resolution to 
the nanometer scale. The combination of near-field microscopes with 
unconventional IR and THz sources offers unprecedented opportunities for 
material characterization, widening the perspectives in a multitude of 
fields of sciences by confining vibro-electronic information within few 
tens of nanometers. In addition, electronic, plasmonic, magnetic, and 
structural dynamic phenomena occurring at the nanometer scale in 
heterostructured and phase separated materials can now be addressed by 
coupling powerful and ultrafast optical sources with near-field probes.
The aim of SAFE is to present the most recent technological advancements 
and innovative applications achieved with state-of-the-art near-field 
microscopes. Potentialities of this technique in field of science 
ranging from biochemistry to material science, and encompassing time 
resolved spectroscopy, will be presented, focusing on the exciting 
opportunities offered by SR and FEL sources.

The workshops will be held at the Adriatico Guest House of the 
International Centre for Theoretical Physics (ICTP) in the village of 
Grignano, about 500 m from the Castle of Miramare, 10 km from downtown 
Trieste, 30 km from Trieste Ronchi dei Legionari airport (TRS), and 145 
km from Venice airport (VCE).

Registration available. Program and further information will be posted 
soon.
