The Park Systems 2020 Material Science Research and AFM Webinar Series continues.

Stimuli responsive materials offer unique properties in physico-chemical field effect, resulting in properties that can both be functional and esoteric. This webinar session will give some insights into understanding the 4D transformation of materials which govern both design of shape and material properties.

This is the third webinar in our 2020 Material Science Research and AFM Webinar Series, designed to help researchers understand leading edge developments in Materials Science Research and Applications using Atomic Force Microscopy.
