NEW

Exchange ideas with other nextnano users at the DPG March meeting in Regensburg!
Dr. Jörg Ehehalt will arrange nextnano user meetings (either during lunch at the Italian restaurant at the campus or in the evening in a pub). Please send an email to support [at] nextnano.de if you want to arrange an individual meeting or if you want to get informed about the informal nextnano user meetings during the 2010 DPG meeting in Regensburg.
Get in touch with Jörg to learn more about the new nextnanomat graphical user interface that is currently being developed.
